attached is a copy of e-mail i have sent to
sydney linux users group.
can anyone help me?
vlad
hello
i've just
installed linux mandrake on my pc. i installed it on a OS free HD and
during the install the following processes failed:
- kivrc
-
ncurses-devel
- qt
- tetex
the error message was
the same : unpacking on archive failed on file (null):3: Bad file
descriptor
after the installation and
reboot i wanted to start X and i used Xconfigurator to set up my monitor, which
comes under Custom. I got my settings from the acompanied documentation with the
monitor but regardless of the configuration i set, it will not start x - of
course i type in startx and press enter.
what happens is that x
description lines appear on screen, the grey screen with X appears and then goes
back to black screen with all those lines. i got error no
111
xinit connection refused :
unable to connect to X server
any help would be
appreciated.
vlad
p.s. are any of above
services vital or causing the x
problems?
