I have a Proliant 385 dl with a Ati Rage XL graphics card ( which should correspond with the Mach64 driver) I have installed xorg as I have done "a zillion times", and used Xorg -configure to set it all up. I have then edited the .conf file as usual, accordingly to the handbook. I have added LXFE in the same manner as on my main computer, and made a .xinitrc with startlxde When i call upon startx as my own user the server freezes and xorg does not start. If doing it by SSH the pipe sooner or later breaks, and I can log back in. When I consult /var/log/Xorg.X.log I get the follwing error listed : Fatal server error: xf86OpenConsole: VT_SETMODE VT_PROCESS failed I have googled quite a lot but cannot find anything help me get Xorg up and running. Anyone out there with any hints ? Blessed be Kenneth Hatteland, Norway
