Hi all, was wondering if anyone could offer some assistance. I just installed Debian Woody on an IBM Thinkpad (specs below). I believe I have XF86Config-4 configured properly for my video setup, because I've found other users with the same machine and used the same applicable settings (driver, HorizSync, VertRefresh, etc). However the X server refuses to start, with this complaint:
Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting (entire log file below) I've searched high and low with not much luck on how to correct this error. Any thoughts? Thanks!!
