Installed all important XFree-3.3.2 components. I attemped to run XF86Setup and got the following message: Couldn't determine where you have XFree86 installed. If you have XFree86 properly installed, set the XWINHOME environment variable to point to the parent directory of the XFree86 bin directory. I then put setenv XWINHOME=/usr/X11R6 so my setenv looked like this: TERM=cons25 PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin: /root/bin MANPATH=/usr/share/man:/usr/X11R6/man:/usr/local/man MAIL=/var/mail/root BLOCKSIZE=K EDITOR=/usr/bin/ee SHELL=/bin/csh HOME=/root LOGNAME=root USER=root PWD=/ PAGER=more XWINHOME=/usr/X11R6= After trying to run XF86Setup now I get: The startup file for this program (/usr/X11R6=/lib/X11/XF86Setup/phase1.tcl) is missing. You need to install it before running this program. Looking at that directory: vishnu# ls /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Setup/  LICENSE keyboard.tcl mseproto.tcl phase5.tcl mtcllib card.tcl modeselect.tcl phase1.tcl mpics mtexts carddata.tcl mondata.tcl phase2.tcl mscripts done.tcl monitor.tcl phase3.tcl setuplib.tcl filelist.tcl mouse.tcl phase4.tcl srvflags.tcl The file phase1.tcl obvously exists... upon attempting to run startx...I get: vishnu# startx execve failed for /usr/X11R6/bin/X (errno 2) _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2 _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2 _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2 _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2 _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2 _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2 giving up. xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error. I did run XF86Config and did create the link to X...but nothing seems to work. I did not have this problem with 2.2.7 Can anyone help? Please reply to my email, as I'm not on the list.
