During the install of Version 7.0 Deluxe I am hitting a problem at the
start of the phase "in second stage install".  The following messages
are displayed:

_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
Thu Apr 20 13:16:42 2000 Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0 at
/usr/bin/perl-install/my_gtk.pm line 139.
install exited abnormally

After this the is no option but to reboot the PC.
At first I thought this might be a graphics card problem as there was a
troubleshooting log for the Matrox card on the Madrake site (I was
running an SiS 6205 2MB card) so on the strength of this I went out and
purchased a 3dfx Voodoo3 2000 PCI card this morning, but unfortunately I
am still getting an identical problem.

I have tried using the text based installer and this appears to get me
into the actuall install however this does not give me any access to the
disk manager which could prove to be another problem.

The system I am trying to install on is configured as follows:
6x86-P133+
40MB EDO RAM
3dfx Voodoo3 2000 PCI
Provista 14" VGA Display
Adaptec AHA-2940
HP DDS2 C1533A
Adaptec AHA-2944
3x Seagate ST32550W SCSI Drives
Premier 56K internal PCI modem
Creative Labs SoundBlaster
3Com Etherlink III NIC

If anyone can shed any light on this problem I would be very grateful.

Kind regards,

Robert Thorneycroft
