I also have the Knoppix 3.2 cd, but it's not possible with >knoppix to make changes to the XF86Config file. Below I copied the yes it can, try mount -oremount,rw /dev/hda1 or whatever your partitions is, the knoppix defaults to mounting read only, see /etc/fstab for the mount options it uses. >XFree86.0.log, I hope you can give me advice on this. you don't want x to startup at boot if you are working on x, edit the /etc/inittab file so the line that looks like this, has a 3 (not 5) in it. (mine is a different distro so might be slightly different) id:3:initdefault: also you should be able to specify runlevel 3 (no x) at the bootup, if I recall grub: edit the boot options (e), select the line that specifies a kernel, edit (e), add a "3" at the end, end edit (esc), then boot (b). // George -- GEORGE GEORGALIS, System Admin/Architect cell: 646-331-2027 <IXOYE>< Security Services, Web, Mail, mailto:george@xxxxxxxxx Multimedia, DB, DNS and Metrics. http://www.galis.org/george _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
