I have installed Red Hat ES Linux v2.1 on to a virtual machine as a guest OS (the host OS is Windows XP pro with VMWare installed). The graphical installation of Linux completes successfully, however, when I attempt to start the X server I get a fatal error. I have tried tweaking the configuration using Xconfigurator, but without success. I now get Fatal IO error 104. I have attached the latest version of the log file, could you offer any suggestions as to where the problem may lie?
As a consequence of running under a guest OS, you need to use the "vmware" driver, not "i740" as you have it.
