Start X problem
I'm having problems starting X windows. After installing Debian 2.0 and entering 'startx' I get the following error; (--) VGA16: Maximum allowed dot-clock: 90 MHz (--) VGA16: There is no defined dot-clock matching mode "1024 x 768" Fatal server error: No valid modes found. When reporting a problem related to server crash, please send the full server output, not just the last messages. _X11 TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111 giving up. xinit: Connecton refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error. What needs to be done to start up the X server? --Greg
Qt installation problem
I'm trying to install Qt 1.40 on Debian 2.0 and have a few questions. First, the Qt Install guide said to edit the .profile file. However my home directory has only a file named .bash_profile, should this be used instead or should it be copied to .profile? Second, I get the following error message when I enter # make linux-g++-shared ./propagate configs/linux-g++-shared cmp /LICENSE: No such file or directory cmp /LICENSE: No such file or directory $QTDIR must be set t $PWD (/usr/local/qt) Please read INSTALL make: *** [linux-g++-shared] Error 1 What should be done to install this correctly? Thanks, Greg

StarOffice on 2.0
Does Debian 2.0 install the correct libraries to run StarOffice 4.0 and 5.0 or do they need to be downloaded? --Greg
Formatting umsdos partitions
I have Debian packages on a Win95 formatted disk and need to transfer them to a Linux formatted disk. These packages have the long filenames, they were not downloaded from the msdos directory. However when I try to access the files directly from Linux, it converts the files to the 8.3 dos convention thus losing the long filenames. The Linux formatted disk has a spare partition I can work with to help transfer these files. I am wondering, if I format the spare partition to the umsdos format, will Win95 be able to recognize it - letting me copy the files there, and preserve the long filenames. Then could I copy/install the files through Linux from the umsdos partition to the ext2 partition keeping the filenames intact? If this is possible, how do I format the partition to the umsdos format? The mkfs command seems to have only msdos but not umsdos. If this idea will not work, are there any ways to transfer these files to my Linux file system and preserve the long filenames? --Greg -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
