Hello all. I'm relatively new at linux so bear with me. I set up linux on my box about two or three weeks ago. Everything was going fine and dandy. I got everything going fine including X windows. However, yesterday, I was in X, and installing maelstrom and quake (a guy's gotta relax ya know...) and I rebooted my machine. After that it startx, xterm, and other apps had just dissappeared. I couldn't get X started no matter what I did. So, I just purged everything X-like from my system and reinstalled it. Everything /seems/ to be back (then again, what do I know), but now when I run 'startx' I get this error:
failed to set default font path '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc, .../fonts/75dpi/:unscaled,.../fonts/100dpi/:unscaled,.../fonts/Type1/, .../fonts/Speedo/,.../fonts/75dpi/,.../fonts/100dpi/' Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed' _X11TransSocketUnixConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111 giving up xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error. Any help would be great appreciated. --Vincent Rosso
