I am new to this and have been trying to get some sort of GUI installed and running. I think I have succeeded in getting at least some bits installed, but I have yet to get anything to work, and would appreciate a bit of guidance. First off, the computer in question is a 68k Mac (and that may be the problem right there, for all I know), specifically, a 68040. Anyway, I have configured with anXious (although, to be honest, I guessed at most of the settings), but the second screen of that gives me:
"Your video card was successfully identified. The Cannot open /proc/bus/pci/devices. You probably have an old kernel. Support for the old Linux PCI interface should be coming soon. Server will be installed. Next you'll be presented with some options for your initial X Window system setup. Detected Video Card" This is exactly the message, including where words appear to be missing. I assume, by the way, since this is a new installation, that I do NOT have an old kernel. Anyway, I installed blackbox, but when I try the command 'blackbox', I get the message: "Base Display::Base Display: connection to X server failed." Does all this mean I have a video card that is simply not supported and what I want to do (a GUI) can't be done, or an I doing something(s) wrong and, if so, what? Any help would be most appreciated.
