I just installed FreeBSD on my computer. It is working fine and I can get to the shell and do everything execept go to the X window. I typed in syinstall and went to the graphical configuaration for the X window system and typed in all the moniter and graphics card paramiters and every thing else but when I finished it said The X Window configuration seems to have failed would you like to try again I have a GeForce4 MX 420 and a CTX moniter Please send any ideas you have on what the problem is to [EMAIL PROTECTED] thank you for your time and help
As root type in the command: X -configure
This will let X create the config file for you in the root directory.
Then run the command that appears for testing.
If you get a large grey screen with a moving mouse then hit
control alt backspace to close X. Then copy the XF86Config.new
file in the root dir to /etc/X11/ and give the command "startx" without the quotes.
This will start up Xwindows with the window manager TWM.
