Re: Redhat 8 install problem

2003-03-25 Thread Jon Morgan 
Eduardo, you the man!  thanks for sending me your config file offline.  I'm up and 
running after modifying it to use my Intel 815 rather than the ATI Rage 128 Mobility 
in yours.  It's up and running.  I'll have to dig a bit deaper to find the exact 
error.  

Thanks to you too Jon.  I appreciate y'alls help!

I am still a very much Linux newbie, so treat this info accordingly:

You can try to see whether your /etc/X11/XF86Config is configured 
correctly. Also try using redhat-config-xfree86 to try to config your X 
correctly.

I have Redhat 8.0 on a Inpiron as well with X working OK. If you want I 
can e-mail my XF86Config (send me an e-mail directly so as not to 
overload the list).

Reg,

Re: Redhat 8 install problem

2003-03-25 Thread Jon Morgan 
I don't have an .xsession-errors file but I do have .gconf, .gnome etc.  I installed 
GNOME as my default Windows manager and it is what is indicated in the 
/etc/sysconfig/desktop file.

I'm no expert, but it looks ok.  And I now realized that your X system
does not hang in any way, it may be up and running healthy.  What you
might miss is a window manager.

Did you install Gnome, KDE or fvwm2?  Do you have a file called
~/.xsession-errors?

Re: Redhat 8 install problem

2003-03-25 Thread Jon Morgan 
I tried to run the redhat-config-xfree86 utility and it gets as far as making the 
mouse icon an arrow.  Progress!  :)  As for the XF86Config, it is the default file 
generated by Anaconda at install.
