Dear X men and women, I was kindly helped by Robyn Manning to solve a problem where X windows kept crashing due to a problem with xfs....
It now works again, but curiously it runs completely normally as root but when I am user I get a derivative clunky and sort of second rate non standard X windows which says "proxy version" or something like that when it fires up. Once the windows appear it then warns me it is a non standard version and says words to the effect that this is a dumb idea.... I would gladly like to revert it back to the standard Xwindows format just like it is in root but I have no idea how it got like this in the first place and it absolutely doesn't tell you how to flip it back. This all happened after I installed a new disk. The OS seemed to take offense at this activity. I can generate output or run diagnostics and post them up on the site if anyone requests it. Any suggestions? Another thing that happened at the same time is that lpd has died on me as well. It won't fire up at boot. I run cups which is OK but when I submit print jobs they don't get printed out. All because of a disk installation. Go figure. All the best, Michael Fothergill _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx _______________________________________________ Newbie mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
