Date: Mon, 16 Sep 1996 13:24:53 GMT Organization: Senarius Inc. Lines: 20 Message-ID: <51m8to$afs@agate.nbnet.nb.ca> Reply-To: cavenerl@nbnet.nb.ca NNTP-Posting-Host: mctnts03c39.nbnet.nb.ca X-Newsreader: Forte Free Agent 1.0.82 I installed X, and got it all working, then I fu&ked all the permissions. So I deleted X11R6, X11 and all the other X* directories I could find. I went on the CD and reinstalled X, then went and setup AcceleratedX (1.2 :P), but when I type X or startx I get the big AccelX "X" and a mouse cursor, but it never gets me to fvwm. Any ideas? -- ,-------------------------------------------------------, |Lance Cavener Systems Administrator | |cavenerl@nbnet.nb.ca Senarius Inc. | |admin@novacon.com | |"Microsoft sent 54 programmers to Apple?
