Re: [newbies] Debian Startx problem

[Andrew Hunter]

Ok, I seem to be getting the grand tour of the Debian startx errors.  
Very educational, I must say.  I ran the command below and set it up.  
My only unclear point is just a little muddy, not actually opaque.  It 
asked about my video card, which is an Nvidia gforce 2 GTS.  I'm 
assuming that the designation for this in the configurator is "nv".  Is 
this not correct?

Regardless, I am now getting the message:

Fatal server error:
no screens found
This is rather mystifying.  In a previous message line, it also says: 
"(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration."  Any ideas 
on how to approach this?  I'm afraid I haven't the foggiest idea what 
the message indicates solution-wise.  Dr. Google has yet to provide a 
solution, but only after an admittedly short time looking.  Thanks--

Andrew

Did you configure X at all?  I think you can run "dpkg --reconfigure
xserver-xfree86"  Or install an X configurator.


it's actually 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86'

try that out. (by the way you're going to need to know what kind of 
graphics card you have.
