As far as I know, the place for the X server is always /usr/X11R6/bin/X if you have Debian 1.2 or newer (I don't know the older versions). > p.s.also notice that there are 2 Xserver(s) file Xserver (found in > /etc/X11/) and Xservers (found in /etc/X11/xdm/) it's the later that you > want. Yes, but it is important to check what's in /etc/X11/Xserver. This file specifies which X server you want to run. It should look something like this: ----cut-here---- /usr/bin/X11/XF86_S3 Console The first line in this file is the full pathname of the default X server. The second line shows who is allowed to run the X server: RootOnly Console (anyone whose controlling tty is on the console) Anybody ----cut-here---- Remco -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
