Hi Linux Users!
I got the xuser0a? files from banjo.concert.net and I copied them
to their respective places according to the rather short readme.
Anyway, I know very very little about X,Linux, or computers in
general compared to most on this newsgroup. I have tried to keep
up and I've looked for some kind of FAQ or help sheets but to no
avail. My errors are when I run startx. I get this message:
General Protection: 0064
EIP: 0008:0000BEAF
EFLAGS:00013212
FS:00013212
BASE: 24000000,LIMIT : 04000000
PID:16,PROCESS NR:9
1f 07 0f a1 0f a9 83 c4 04 cf
xinit: server error
When I just run X:
General Protection: 0064
EIP: 0008:0000BEAF
EFLAGS:00013212
FS:00013212
BASE: 24000000,LIMIT : 04000000
PID:16,PROCESS NR:9
1f 07 0f a1 0f a9 83 c4 04 cf
Segmentation Fault
Barring a typo that is what I have.
Could some one out there in computerland PLEASE mail me some
simple step by step instructions to run this thing.
I have:
386/40 AMD
Trident TVGA cheapo! 1024x768 512k VRAM
4 megs of RAM
microsoft compatable(I hope) mouse
