SuSE Linux: Versions since 4.2
XFree86: Versions since 3.1.2E
After a (apparently) successfulInstallation of the X server using XF86Setup or xf86config, respectively you enter:
startx
but nothing happens. You might see a note to re install the X server.
Well, being well informed you have a look at ~/.X.err
where you may find the following sentence:
No Server X in PATH!or
The file XF86_XXXX (binary of X-Server) doesn't seem to be a binary file. Please check it or/and install a new X-Server binary.
There is no X server installed or the link that should point to the server points to nowhere.
Please proceed as follows:
xp9k, xw32, x8514, xmach64, xmach8, xmono, xs3, xsvga, xvga16, xi128-bThey are located in series
x
. Or install one of the S.u.S.E. X server
xmatrox, xsusema64, xtrident, xtseng, xat3d, xglint, xnvidia(the package should be marked with an
[i]
!).Eventually install the needed X server with YaST.
You might need to reconfigure the X Window System
either using XF86Setup
or xf86config
.
ls -l /usr/X11R6/bin/X* ls -l /var/X11R6/bin/X*You should see something simuilar to:
/var/X11R6/bin/X -> /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SERVER-NAME /usr/X11R6/bin/X -> /var/X11R6/bin/X
Here "SERVER-NAME
" stands for the selected X Server.
This means you have to replace "SERVER-NAME
" by the name of
your X Server ("Mach64
" if you want to install the Mach64
server).
The S.u.S.E. X Server are named XSuSE_XXXX.
If these links don't exist you have to create them:
ln -s /var/X11R6/bin/X /usr/X11R6/bin/X ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SERVER-NAME /var/X11R6/bin/XInstallation and configuration of the S.u.S.E. X-Server is detailed in "configuration of the S.u.S.E.-X-Server" maddin_xsuse.html.
