I installed XFree86, then i run XFree86 -configure, then i run XFree86 -xf86config XF86Config.new. Everything is ok. Than i cp XF86Config.new to /etc/X11/XF86Config (i tried to copy and to /usr/X11R6/etc/X11/XF86Config but there is no directory X11). then, when i run startx i get the next error: screen not found... I know i can do everythiing with xf86cfg but i don`t understand why the first way has problems (may be i have problems :)))) ). Thank You!




Do you have a 'screen' section in your /etc/X11/XF86Config file?

If you do, does it have screen entries?  IIRC, you'll need at least
one section with valid depth, modes, and virtual entries.  (Note:
I'm not an expert, and don't play one on TV).

Here's the "screen" section from my XF86Config:

*****************************************
Section "Screen"
       Identifier "Screen0"
       Device     "Card0"
       Monitor    "Monitor0"
       DefaultDepth     16
       SubSection "Display"
               Depth     1
       EndSubSection
       SubSection "Display"
               Depth     4
       EndSubSection
       SubSection "Display"
               Depth     8
       EndSubSection
       SubSection "Display"
               Depth     15
       EndSubSection
       SubSection "Display"
               Depth     16
               Modes   "1024x768"
               Virtual 1024 768
       EndSubSection
       SubSection "Display"
               Depth     24
               Modes   "1024x768"
               Virtual 1024 768
       EndSubSection
EndSection
