That one went kaput, and I bought an MSI GeForce 4 Ti 4200, Now i loaded up slackware 9.0 (never tried 8.1 w/ new card), and i cant get the x window system to start. I get the same error every time, and ive gone through the xfsetup and xfconfig to no previal. My error message is on the lines the fact that it says it found a screen but could not config it. But then the output file says that access is denied when i try to open it or copy it to a floppy, and i only have the root login, so i dont even know how to get the file to show it to you guys. But as for this problem, maybe it has already happened, and somone had the same issue and knows how i can fix it. My monitor is a ViewSonic GS790. If you need to know anything, just e-mail me back. i sure hope someone knows what i can do, because i sure dont. > > > > Thanks in advanced. > > Michael Anderson > > _______________________________________________ > XFree86 mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86 > _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
