Hey everyone,
I've been trying this for a few weeks now. I've got an original ATI Radeon
(64mb SDR) and I'm running Slackware 10.1 I can get a command prompt, and
I've played around with the xorg.conf, but no matter what, startx always
brings up a blank screen from which I can't escape. Even the menu button on
the monitor doesn't bring up anything. I have to ctrl-alt-del to restart
the system.
I tried on FreeBSD, and while X Window still won't start, it at least boots
me back to the command prompt with the following errors:
Caught signal 11. Server aborting.
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown)
xauth: (argv):1: bad disaply name ":0" in "remove" command
Anyone able to help me? I'm about to give up on *nix systems until I can
get a different video card to try.
