after setting up the kernel (linux 2.4.18) to use the nvidia extensions i tryed to start the Xfree system, and nothing happens...
i put up the log files onto:
http://boettcher.ath.cx/~bboett/x-log http://boettcher.ath.cx/~bboett/XFree86.0.log
the error is strange, i can't quite see somethings getting really wrong, and the final error is unintelligible to me...
You mean the XIO error? Yeah. It actually looks like the X server might've started OK, then crashed for some reason. There are no noticeable errors in the XFree86 log you sent, which is strange, and the XIO error tends to suggest that the server did get far enough to accept connections before dying.
If that works (grey screen and X cursor appear, hit CTL-ALT-BACKSPACE to exit), try "startx `which xterm`" and see if you get an X session with nothing but an xterm. If you do, then the problem isn't with XFree86 but somewhere in your system config (what clients you're starting, etc).
What happens if you just run "X :1" on the console?
