Re: Newbie needs help on X win!!!
Hello, Depending on what graphics card you have, install the required Xserver. ie. XF86_SVGA. that one is very generic to most graphic card types. Install all the bins and then the rest is up to you... like apps and games. You will be required to configure a script called /etc/XF86Config, but there are programs that will do that for you like the /usr/X11R6/bin/xf86config bin. Be ready to input your monitor vertical and horizontal sync rates (GET IT RIGHT) and information on your graphics card. ie. vid RAM and clocks. The xf86config program will prob for clocks for you. I'm not going to write a novel, but I hope that helps. :) -=Adrian=- Tam Ma wrote: Hi guys, Hi guys, I just install slink and all of the packages that I need. Now I want installl X window but I don't know which packages to install. Can you guys give me a list of packages I should Install to get X window working. I don't want anything fancy yet, right now I just want ordinary X window and maybe with file manager like Gnome or something. Thanx so much.

Debian FDisk
Hello, Linux fdisk doesn't see past 1024 cylindars, I have a 20.4GB HD which requires over 2000 cylindars. As well I have win95 on hda1, I want to put linux on hda2, however lilo doesn't sit well in a FAT32, or screws up because of the HD size. Hardware specs: MB =ASUS Flagship 1999 CPU=Celeron466 BIOS =AWARD PNP 1998---(hope this helps) HD =MAXTOR 20.4GB patition sizes: hda1=7.5GB(win95), hda2=10GB(linux?), hda3=3GB(Win95) Is there a new lilo and fdisk that will work, or do I have to reinstall linux on hda1 (which would SUCK!). Thanx for reading, -=Adrian=-
