Hi,
I have just installed X on my already existing "command line only" RH7.3
machine. I installed every XFree86 rpm I could find, all the dependencies
and the fvwm2 rpms.
I am having trouble with starting X. It keeps saying that it doesn't
recognize the "Section names", but these are the section names created by
xf86config. After looking around on the net I found a few people with
similar probs but no solution.
I've included as much info below as I could think of. Any help would be
appreciated.
Regards,
Reagen.
