Hi, I am doing a little better my second time through installation. I am in section 5.4.2 of the handbook[1] for installing x11 using xorg. (The handbook seems to need a bit of an update for 6.1-RELEASE.) 76. run the command "Xorg -config" it says that it detected my moust at /dev/sysmouse it says that my xorg.conf file is "/root/xorg.conf.new" 77. the handbook says to run this command next "Xorg -config xorg.conf.new" this didn't work. I got a core pointer missing error 78. after step 76 the computer screen said to run "X -config /root/xorg.conf.new". I tried this and this command worked a bit. I could see a little bit of and x windows screen and could move the cursor around with the mouse. Now I am completely stuck. I have a grey screen and an 'x' shaped cursor I can move. What do I do?
