Hi, Again: I've got a window of opportunity to get some more systems functioning under Linux. One high priority for me is vmware. Success there will mean that I can just stay up which would be very good, as rebooting in order to access something in Windows is becoming a real drag. I'm stuck somewhere short of launching vmware, though. I get an error that says something like DGA configuration incorrect. It's a gui message. I have XFree and I believe it installed with no errors back those several weeks ago when I was last on this trail. I've run X Configurator without errors as well -- except that that last dialog, where it launches X and asks whether everything looks OK "Yes" or "No" doesn't seem to respond to keystrokes. I've just let it time out. I'm running level 5, and coming up to a gui login (which I just Control-Alt-1 out of normally). I did log in at one point when I had sighted help at hand. No errors, but my sighted assistant said the mouse cursor was nowhere to be found. That's the best I can do right now. I will have some sighted assistance later today, and I'd like to make some progress, if possible. Where do I start debugging this? Thanks, as always.
