I can in text mode,however. Unfortunately, I still cannot "startx" after install. I continually get the error messages- "(EE) screen(s) found but cannot use" - "cannot connect to X server"-etc. Please Help!! I'm beginning to think that the media is corrupt. That stinks! I just bought this software from CompUSA. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
