REPOST: Installation worked from hard-disk, now X-Windows trouble

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Can anyone help me with this? Also, if there's any place where I can search
for experiences from people who've had similar problems, could you direct me
to it?
Of course, direct help is always better :)

Thanks,
Tarek nabil

Thanks Micheal.

Actually, the problem is I cannot start X at all. It keeps trying several
times and then it gives me the error dialogues. I will paste as many
information here as I can, but at the same time trying not to flood the list
with un-needed logs.


>From the XFree86.0.log (I will not paste the whole file, just the part
where
I think the error has occurred):

(EE) I810(0): No Video BIOS modes for chosen depth.

>From the messages file, I think also this is the important part:
