x doesn't load at all. I'm not real familiar with Linux, but I get the equivelent of a dos prompt with the penguin at top. I can then login and do normal stuff, but no GUI. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Tzafrir Cohen Sent: Sunday, November 19, 2000 12:50 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [expert] $DISPLAY not set On Sun, 19 Nov 2000, Brent Timmer wrote: > Gotta throw this one again.Whenever kdeinit tries to load (whenever it'a > bout to go to the login box), it drops back and says "$DISPLAY not set". > Anybody know how to fix this so I can get on with my life ;) ? I lost your original message. Does X load at all? Go to a console (Ctrl-Alt-F1), login, and run: xinit /usr/X11R6bin/twm (or use balckbox / wmaker / icewm / whatever if it is installed on your system instead of twm) See if anything gets loaded -- Tzafrir Cohen mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir
