Sorry if this verges on being off topic. I have spent over twenty hours trying to get X to work on my compaq presario 2105. I have got as far as getting twm up, but cannot get the mouse to work. There I stand. By contrast, my knoppix disc fires up a very nice windowing-desktop environment, no sweat...but does not do so well with my networking. Red-Hat auto-configged both just fine last time I tried it on this box, but for strictly irrational reasons I'd like to make things work with debian. So, here's the question, and feel free to backchannel: which would you do? Go back to redhat, wrestle networking in knoppix, continue wrestling X in debian? No pointers too basic, and happy to r any fm (that's "fine manual") y'all can point to. -- beau (c)2004ISR; http://www.semanticrestructuring.com Choose One: ( )Democracy ( )Paperless Voting http://www.verfiedvoting.com _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
