[Fink-beginners] error when typing startx --rootless

[Chris Beamis]

When type fink list, part of what I get is

i xfree86-base 4.2.1.1-3 XFree86 libraries, utilities, clients and...
i xfree86-base-sh 4.2.1.1-3 XFree86 libraries, utilities, clients and...
i xfree86-rootles 4.2.1.1-3 XFree86 libraries, utilities, clients and...
i xfree86-rootles 4.2.1.1-3 XFree86 libraries, utilities, clients and...

which means, I thought, that I have Xfree86 installed.

But when i type startx --rootless, I get the below complaints.
I'm using a dual 866MHz purchased in early Noremember with 10.2.3 installed.
I just installed fink 0.5.0a yesterday.

Thanks,
Chris
