X isn't crashing. Rather, GNOME isn't starting. Make sure that gcc is installed (it's not finding cpp, which is the C preprocessor.) Also, make sure that GTK+ is installed (it needs glib, also. Not to be confused with glibc, which everything needs.)

I've tried during the last week or so to get X up, but the server keeps crashing irrelevant of the adaptor I am using ( I' ve tried Trio 3D/2X, Matrox G100 ). Some times the server comes up momentarily, but crashes when I return to console 1 after working on another. The following is the error it reports: sh:/lib/cpp: No such file or directory /usr/bin/gnome-session: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory waiting for X server to shut down Ther were no errors during installation. Can anybody tell me what is wrong.Pls.
