My laptop is HP Pavilion tx2510us and uses the graphics card ATI Radeon(TM) HD 3200 Graphics everything works expect even when the terminal does come up it gives this error xauth: (argv):1: bad display name replay.free-bsd.net:0 in remove command ideas? Please don't only reply to me, if your initial question was towards the list -- someone else may see something I'm missing. You never answered my initial question. Are the proper xorg drivers for your graphics card installed? I ask again, because I've seen several situations where non-existent or incorrect graphics drivers make X do bad/odd things when exiting -- I've experienced this situation myself. I know nothing about ATI, other than it doesn't play well with any of the OSes I use, so I don't buy it. -- Glen Barber 570.328.0318 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Trouble Shutting down
** Forgot to CC the list, in case anyone is actually watching this thread.** Theirs nothing in the /etc/X11 folder or a xorg.conf file, I think Xorg automatically did everything Well, if you say you ran 'X -configure', it should've created an xorg.conf file. If you ran it as root (which you almost probably had to), check in /root From what you've told me before, I can pretty well guess that you don't have your necessary Xorg drivers installed for your graphics card. I suggest reading the manual on how to resolve this -- but don't expect miracles as far as ATI goes. If you don't know how to manage Xorg, I doubt you should be running -CURRENT. -- Glen Barber -- Glen Barber 570.328.0318 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Trouble Shutting down
I'm using FreeBSD amd64 8-0-Current I set up window maker to start by startx command, but when I exit the window maker the screen just turns black nothing works so I'm force to unplug the power each time. This happens sometimes other times the terminal shows up and I can shutdown manually. Since I'm using a snapshot version of FreeBSD is this a bug? I'm not sure what logs to copy and paste here for more information. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
