hi, i've managed to successfully compile and install 4.399.16 but as soon as i type startx X starts and all i see is the the mouse cursor in the centre of the screen. i am unable to change to a console even, but i can ssh into the machine. i'm using a radeon 9800 pro. thanks, ash _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
