I am attempting to install XFree86 4.2.0 onto my Linux system at
home and i have run into some problems that i do not know how to
solve.
1) When i run 'XFree86 -configure' the program tells me that the glide
library is missing. I am running a GeForce2 MX400 AGP graphics
accelerator. Do i need to resolve this problem? If so, where do i
get the library files i need?
2) When trying to test the configuration of XFree86 using the command
'XFree86 -xf86config /root/XF86Config.new', the program aborts and
tells me that it cannot detect my mouse.
The specs of my mouse are as follows:
Logitech
USB
Optical
2 primary buttons
1 wheel
When i add the line 'Option "Protocol" "usb"' to the XF86Config.new
file, the program tells me that this is not a valid protocol.
3) The last problem is the most frustrating. Currently, i can only
boot linux in Single User mode. This is because whenever i try
another style, the loading process reaches the X font server and
stalls indefinitely.
If there is any way you can help me, or get this message to someone
who can; i would greatly appreciate it.
Sincerely,
Josh Schlicker
