there was X libraries sill in the distro isn't there? How do I boot a
gui? I believe xfce runs on X. I see no gnome, or even kde.
I am probably behind and I am no developer, so idk what's up.
what should I do?
I always boot into multiuser before starting X with LXDE using startx
when I want a gui. So, this does work, as others have confirmed.
Try putting the following in a file called .Xclients in your home
directory.
#! /bin/bash
exec startxfce4
and once you have, run startx again. If you use the command
startx -- vt10
it should leave the messages from X on tty1, and put the X display on
virtual console 10. If you want to start X as a different user, you
can then start it on a different virtual console.
startx -- vt10 seems to work, opening a mini terminal window.
