Thanks to "wij@Dyn" <sternmull@xxxxxxxx> for help with my Screens
found, none usable for the following help with my config file:
It's just a guess, but does commenting out the UseFBDev option
line in your config file help you?
Now I got past that part of startx and had problems with the
mouse I guess. So I had to go back and configure my mouse for gpm using
the BROKEN wheeled PS2 mouse. Went back to X and finally got a "gray"
screen with an "X" in the middle. But when I went to move the mouse the
"X" cursor moved off the screen and I couldn't get it back. Although
moving the mouse to just the right spot got a menu to come up, I couldn't
select anything like Exit. So I had to hit reset and reboot. I've
attached my log file with the last item adding the mouse. Curiously,
selecting the wheel button brought up another menu that I also couldn't
use.
One other concern, the "gray" screen seemed to have a pattern of
dark shadows (looks like magnetic flux lines) throughout the display. I
wonder if this could harm the display or video card, and whether there is
some way to get rid of it.
Sincerely,
John Waldeck
