I am unable to run Xwindows. I have debian 1.31. I believe I have messed something up in an attempt to upgrade the SVGA server. Ben Pfaff said I needed the latest version of the SVGA server to support my Matrox Millenium II, so I downloaded X332SVGA.tgz from an X site. I am not clear how the X files are organized in debian, but I believe debian organizes X files differently than what the X people consider the standard.
In any event, I unpacked the file X332SVGA.tgz from /usr/X11R6/bin with the statement gzip -dc /dosfloppy/x332svga.tgz | tar xfB - Further attempts to run Xwindows (before I at least got a 320X200 screen) result in an error message -X11 TransSocketUNIXConnect : Can't connect : errno = 2 xinit: No such file or directory unable to connect to xserver So I assume a file is missing but what file? According to the X people the file /usr/X11R6/bin/X is suppose to be a symbolic link to the actual Xserver (for me XF86_SVGA) but even when I had it working at low resolution this was not the case. Am I suppose to manually make the symbolic link with ln -sf /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA /usr/X11R6/bin/X or is there some upgrade script that I need to run? -Thank you for bearing with a debian newbie Chip -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
