Hi all,
First problem; X runs on my machine pretty well but crashes moments later (as
a result of a "fatal server lockup") on switching to a virtual console with
the Ctrl+Alt+Fn keystroke. My system specs are as follows:-
Machine: Dell Optiplex GX10
Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 3.0r1 "woody" Kernel 2.4.21
X -version: XFree86 version 4.1.0.1 (protocol version 11, revision 0)
Video card: Onboard intel 810E
The full server log is appended to the end of this message for your perusal.
A similar installation on an equivalent machine but with an ATI Mach64 GB
graphics card does not suffer from this problem. A little bit of tweaking
XF86Config-4 like negating the UseFBDev option did not help much. Any
solutions?
Second problem, issuing the command startx, fires up KDE 3.1.3 by default. How
do I set some other light weight window manager like fvwm to run by default
without using a desktop manager like gdm? Actually, I love KDE but arts has
issues with my sound card - Aureal Vortex au8220 and therefore want to kick
start some other wm.
Thanks and regards
