Hello, during starting X (xdm, startx,X,...) the screen turns black. and the machine don't accepts any commands. no alt+f1 no cntrl+alt+delete no nothing.
i'm "using" a fresh debian-woody-stable install (2.4 kernel) on a dell latitude cpi d266xt laptop with neomagic video (is/should be supported by both shipped version -XFree 3 and XFree 4.). no other operation system, no crazy extra- devices. I redirected output to a file but there were no interesting error-messages. the problem exists with both XFree version but with Xfree 3 i get 6 white pixels (yes i counted them). the font-manager is up and running, i did'nt fiddled around neither with permissions nor with kernel (only adding some modules during the installation-process). It's pretty much a standard setup. so either i am totally stupid or it should affect other users as well. any clue? thanks norman PS. deselect sucks -- norman werner c./ seneca 3 puerta 1 46021 valencia spanien tel:96-3280175 / 626476194 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
