Dear Sir/Madam, I have a peculiar problem while using
startx. My computer's microprocessor is Pentium 4. The
Linux installed on it is Red hat version 8.
Now the problem is as follows: When I type startx at
the command prompt, I get an error :
fatal server error
caught signal 8
server aborting. Then the command prompt is displayed
again.

I  request you to aid me in solving the problem. How
to make startx work properly.

The second point is : When I type startx -- -dip 100
startx works fine. This I had dione on the advice of a
friend. I do not know the underlying reason
for this. 

I would like to know 1)why startx does not work when I
type startx at the command prompt.
How to make it work (the solution)
Also why did startx work when I typed startx -- -dip
100.

I would be grateful if you will reply soon.

Thanking You,
Mahesh.
