I've got a test server setup in vmware running sarge (2.6 kernel). I've got two problems that I'm having trouble resolving:
The first is that I can't get X working. Yes I know X on a server shouldn't be necessary on a server, but I'm playing with vmware. The error I get is: GDM: Xserver not found: /usr/X11R6/bin/X : -audit 0 auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth -nolisten tcp vt7 Error: Command could not be executed! Please install the X server or edit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf to point to the right place. Now I installed xfree68, but there is no X in that folder. Can anyone give me an idea of where to start troubleshooting? The other thing was in regard to installing the vmware tools. The menu which is meant to do it, doesn't work (I think its because its not designed to work with debian). Its asks if you want to and then doesn't provide any feedback as to its lack of success. In the bottom left of the vmware screen is says as it did before the attempt that the vmware tools aren't installed. Any help would be appreciated.
