console to KDE


Recommended Posts

I think during installation I may have messed up in the display process. I know I put Nvidia drivers (Generic) for my GF4 card. I also installed Xserver. For some reason when it boots up it goes into console instead of KDE. I type startx and kde but I get an error:

XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"

after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

Looks like an input/output issue.

So yeah how can I fix this problem...

Not that much worries, I'm playing around on that MS Virtual PC trial. I'm using the distro Mandrake Linux 9.2...

I still have Mandrake 9.1 working on the dual boot, but I wanted to play around with 9.2.

Sounds like X is not configed correctly...

If you can use your Mandy 9.1 .config, it will help.

If not, run (as root) xf86config

That should allow you to fix the problem.

it could be because your using a VPC the drivers arent really for a GF4 they are for the fake out emulated hardware.

that should be fine for what he's doing

probably has to do with your x config
