I am a Linux novice attempting to set up X11R6 on my 486 system. I had proceded to the mouse set up at one point using the graphical set up program but (due to a little stupidity) my computer locked up and I had to shut it off with out properly exiting Linux. Since it was the first install I decided just to refomat the drive (125Mb just for testing Linux and X) and reinstall. Now all times since this (even after reformatting) I get the following errors in Dselect while trying to install X.
Xlib5 setup in deselect "ldconfig: warning: can't open /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 (no such file or directory), skipping ldconfig: warning: can't open /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (no such file or directory), skipping" xserver-vga (3.3-3) in deselect "current default X server /bin/false found" (how is this possible after I reformat the hard disk?) "XFree86 file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc is missing" Also when it asks to create a new config file for X (select y or n) and I ask it to create a new one, it gives the errors shown above in "xlib6 setup" until I select n. All the other packages install ok, why does X seem to be missing files and find some "/bin/false/ found" which shouldn't be there? Thanks for any help you can give.
