HELP!!! I had my Screen saver on. The monitor started to go off and on. I killed the X server. I booted to runlevel 3 then to startx but I was getting the same thing. I do not know what I did or what happened. last night I just installed Acrobat reader 4 and that was all. Anyway I understood that something was wrong with the X server so I decided to run xf86config. I did it a couple of times but all I am getting is an awfull resolution and NO mouse. I tried all the possible protocols for the mouse but no solution. Then I run Xconfigurator. When I set everything up I and typed startx I had the same problem so Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to kill the server ( which was insisting of turning the monitor on and off ) and then I got the message Fixed Font missing. No default unix/: -1 So I tried to open /etc/X11/XF86Config and set the font path to the above default but I got the message that access was denied.( I was logged as root) Now I am really stuck. I am ready to reinstall but before that maybe you know a fix. Assume nothing and all the above steps were taken with the help of HOWTOS and the mandrake site. Please help!!! ( well sorry but I had to use Windoze)
