I installed Dweebian on my brand-new 1.1GHz machine (does a 'make bzImage on 2.2.18 in 1m48s!), with a nifty new G450 vid board. after figuring out what packages I needed, I installed XFree86 4.0.2, and ran XFree86 -configure. moved the resulting config file to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, and tried running 'XFree86 -xf86config /etc/X11/XF86Config-4' unfortunately, this produces a blank screen, which does not respond to keyboard input. :( ssh'ing in, and killing XFree86 doesn't release the console either. :( I have to run 'reboot' from my ssh session, in order to kill it. :( (any way to re-initialize the console remotely, and reset it without rebooting?) anyone seen anything like this before? the file made by XFree86 -configure, should produce at least a *working* output, if not an optimal one. there don't seem to be any problematic error messages in /var/log/XFree86.0.log maybe in the morning I'll be able to think of something...
