Dear Sir,
Have searched the manual FAQ's etc, and XFREE86, for
reference to the following;
I am able to get an X server running by accessing /usr/X11R6/bin
and running the server from there. If I use startx or xinit I get a message
saying the server is not in the path.
2 Questions, please.
1 Which file do I edit to put the path to the server, so I can use startx?
2 When I get a server running as described above, I cannot get any windows
or colour, just the mouse pointer on a grey background. How do I get the
window manager to appear?
I am running a Cyrix P200 MMX 32mb Ram S3 trio 64+ 2mb.
I would be grateful for any help you can provide,
Thanks Colin.
Colinn
