Right.. Looks like there's no display manager installed. Depending on your favorite environment, could you install one of sddm, lxdm or gdm ? On my side, I used sddm. > Question: Where is the file that contains the display setup (ie refresh > rate, resolution.) This can be set in /etc/X11/xorg.conf in some cases (e.g. for nvidia hardware). Now, most of the required information is retrieved from hardware by Xorg. xorg.conf can usually be removed (except with nvidia driver). > Where would randr get its information if Xorg was > running? >From Xorg process. > I would have responded sooner but have been hit with a severe case of > Vertigo.
