I copied the working xconf from my old system to my new one and had |
| 52 |
never modified/hacked the installation paths of those applikations. |
| 53 |
So I exspect that at least X will give me that greyish screen with |
| 54 |
an moveable X as cursor (was it that way...its lon ago that I need |
| 55 |
to call X the plain way.). |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
Why could the GLX module not found??? |
