Seasons Greetings folks.... Wells been an exciting couple of days.
Upgraded my Mandrake 9.1 system with XFree86-4.3-8.4.91mdk.i586.rpm (using XFree server-4.3-5mdk.i586.rpm plus others...) Now why did i loses my server as the next time i went to start the PC i was faced with a console and no GUI. when i tried to start using startx i got an error exe???? (errorno 2) informed me that something CRITICAL wasn�t there like the user settings file. I ended up finding out the server wasn�t installed. I also had to install by doing rpm -i Xfree86-server-4.3-5.mdk-i586.rpm --nodeps. WHY???? any help would be most greatful. dave ps i i had no messages to say that XYZ packages also needed to be installed and did i want them installed. infact i got a message to say that Mozilla* and Galleon where to be uninstalled due to dependancy conflicks.
