Hi all,

Now i'm trying to install X11 on my VM. I did the following:

1. Installed kernel-headers-2.4.27-3-386

2. Installed x-window-system
  $ apt-get update
  $ apt-get upgrade
  $ apt-get install x-window-system

3. Installed VBox Guest Additions as described in the manual

4. Tried to reconfigure xfree86:
  $ dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86

It recognizes the 'vboxvideo' adapter and all, but when i want to 'startx',
this happens:

(EE) xf86OpenSerial: No Device specified.
(EE) VBoxMouse: cannot open input device
(EE) PreInit failed for input device "VBoxMouse"
 .
 .
 .
No core pointers

Fatal server error:
failed to initialize core devices

-------------
My /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 looks like this:

 .
 .
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier     "VBoxMouse"
        Driver         "vboxmouse"
        Option         "CorePointer"
EndSection
 .
 .

So what can i do? Indeed i am missing the point here. I am quite new to Linux
so i ask here.

Thanks, Lin
