How do I setup X 4.0 on my machine. I upgraded my father's machine to woody, and it gave me a world of troubles as I lost the ISDN connection, X and sound. But now I have gotten all back. Except that I would now like to setup X 4.0 for him and setup an alsa module to handle the sound (the ESS SOLO1 has been a little troublesome earlier with 2.2.15, but it seems better now with .18pre21) But I got a lot of problems after installing the alsa modules. depmode was complaining greatly about unresolved things. Is there any point in spending time on the ALSA modules at this point?
Is there a tool for setting up X 4.0, I can only find the tools for 3.3.6 on my computer and looking at the repository I cannot say I can find any packages that sticks out as being the one I need to install. Thanks in advance. PS: On all the machines I have installed Debian I have gotten problems with the combination X and GPM, isn't it time to drop GPM at startup and let those who only wants the console set it up themselves with rcconf? I reckon they are less newbie than those who use X. -- Preben Randhol ---------------------- http://www.pvv.org/~randhol/ -- +---+ "There was, I think, never any reason to believe in any innate | ! | superiority of the male, except his superior muscle." +---+ -- Bertrand Russell, Ideas That Have Harmed Mankind (1950)
