I was having problems with Xwindows so I decided to install Xfree86
the install went fine but when I restarted and typed 'startx' (is this
right? is it startx for xfree86 as well?) I got this output:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(II) Loading sub module "fbdevhw"
(II) LoadModule: "fbdevhw"

Fatal server error:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I didnt know what this meant and was wondering if you could shed some light..
Thanks a lot,
