By screen being dark, do you mean that the X server seems to hang on a blank, dark screen, or that you can't start it up at all? > There are error messages, Try starting X with the following command: startx > error.log 2>&1 This will redirect the info that X normally writes to the console--including error messages--to a file named error.log. Save error.log to a floppy so that you can read it under Windows. I'd also suggest running the command "unix2dos" on the file error.log, so that it doesn't read as some big long line in Windows. (You can install unix2dos from its Red Hat 7.2 RPM. Look in /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS in either of the installation CDs. It will be on one of them.) Once that's done, post the contents in a reply to this message, possibly along with any other info you scrounge up. ===== -- I am a fool for Christ.
