It installed fine withous any error msg's. What's going on here? >I thought the generic kernel is supposed to support X. "It doesn't work" is not a useful bug report. If you want someone to help you, it would be a good idea to supply more detailed information. For example, exactly what command did you use to try to start X and what error message did you receive? - Gene Stark
