Hi, I am inthe process of installing mdk 8.0 on a machine that has successfully been running 7.1 (XFree 4.0) for more than 12 months. Started with upgrade - locked up at X configuration. OK, probably some of the old files so I'll format and start afresh. Locks up at the same point. Trying to run XFdrake with --noauto etc causes a lockup as well (these are full - a dead machine.) The card is a bog standard S3 virge. The /etc/X11/X symlink is missing so the config didnt even get that far. Any suggestions besides burning it! BillK
