Hi!

It's very useful for us readers, if you tell us which version of xfree you
try to make running on your machine!

If you like to use xfree3.x on potato you should install xviddetect (Opt X).
Then you can use #anXious on console! A great configuration tool.

And you can view the .xsession-errors file in your homedirectory, to find
out why #startx makes trouble.

If you copy your .xsession-errors file into this newsgroup and write about
the version of xfree and whether you use potato or woody, the others have 
a better chance to give you useful suggestions for fixing your trouble!

Timo
