It's my first time to install Linux and I'm having a terrible time with it. I'm trying to install Mandrake 7 with a boot disk I made with rawwrite with the cdrom image (since I can't boot from CD on this old system). My install always ends with this: in second stage of install _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect errno = 111 _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect errno = 111 Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display :0 at /usr/bin/perl-install/mt-gtk.pm line 139. installed exited abnormally I guess this is the Xserver having trouble with my display and I've tried two different graphics cards a Trident and ATI All in Wonder Pro but both of them give me this error. Here are the specs to the system I'm trying to install on: Cyrix 150 Hot - 541 mainboard 1 x 32 meg SIM Mitsumi FX810S CD-ROM Trident 9440-1 video card Maxtor 2.1 gig HD Any help would be greatly appreciated.
