Have succeeded with potato install on Mitsubishi Amity laptop, but stuck on configuring X. Potato install runs in a 16 color VGA mode, so I don't know why I can't even get something that simple to run. I have tried xf86config but apparently something goes wrong. Among other things, SuperProbe finds a Yamaha chip, which doesn't appear on xf86config's list of options. So, I am trying to run anXious. I can migrate to /usr/bin and type anXious; nothing happens.
Permission problem?? I tried chmod a+x anXious. Still no joy. I'm stumped. Newbie will appreciate help. TIA and Happy New Year. PS: Any debian specific X howto out there?? Haven't found one yet.
