I was having problems with Xwindows so I decided to install Xfree86 the install went fine but when I restarted and typed 'startx' (is this right? is it startx for xfree86 as well?) I got this output: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (II) Loading sub module "fbdevhw" (II) LoadModule: "fbdevhw" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/linux/libfbdevhw.a (II) Module fbdevhw: vendor="The XFree86 Project" compiled for 4.5.0, module version = 0.0.2 ABI class: XFree86 Video Driver, version 0.8 (II) FBDEV(1): using default device (--) Assigning device section with no busID to primary device (--) Chipset vesa found (--) Assigning device section with no busID to primary device (--) Chipset generic found Fatal server error: Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs for all framebuffer devices ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I didnt know what this meant and was wondering if you could shed some light..
