Newbie question. I have checked the FAQ and the archives and haven't come
across an answer to this, doesn't mean it's not there just I haven't found
it.
Here goes I type startx and get the following.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
[localhost:/usr/X11R6/bin] elewis% startx
X probe ver. 0.0.1p1
------------------
Can not resolve: Unknown host
error while parsing/resolving: :0
giving up.
xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error.
[localhost:/usr/X11R6/bin] elewis% startx
X probe ver. 0.0.1p1
------------------
Can not resolve: Unknown host
error while parsing/resolving: :0
giving up.
xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
How do I resolve the host?
I try the rootless option and get
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
[localhost:/usr/X11R6/bin] elewis% startx -- -rootless
xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): no server "/usr/X11R6/bin/X"
in PATH
Use the -- option, or make sure that /usr/X11R6/bin is in your path and
that "/usr/X11R6/bin/X" is a program or a link to the right type of server
for your display. Possible server names include:
XFree86 XFree86 displays
XDarwin Darwin/Mac OS X IOKit displays
XDarwinQuartz Mac OS X Quartz displays
XDarwinStartup Auto-select between XDarwin and XDarwinQuartz
giving up.
xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I've checked and I don't have an X in /usr/X11R6/bin
Any ideas? Also tried specifying XFree86
