Hey Pete! Your are checking the wrong file. Debian 3.0 is shipped with XFree 4.X.X. So you should check the XFree86Config-4 File in /etc/X11 The XFree86Config file without the "-4" Postfix has only been used by previous versions of XFree. As far as i know all the XFree 3.X.X versions used the other file. You can configure your file by either running xf86cfg or dpkg-reconfigure xfree86-server. wb Renč ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter van Oene" <pvo@usermail.com> To: <newbie@XFree86.Org> Sent: Thursday, November 14, 2002 10:29 PM Subject: Startx > In brief, my startx script goes through the motions of starting X, but > dies without any apparent error.
