- Well.. here's the deal. I'm trying desperately to get
- X386 to work on my system. I have a 386-40 w/ 80mb
- partition for UNIX on a IDE MAxtor.. My video is 1MB
- Diamond Speedstar Plus...
-
- I got all the /usr/bin and /usr/lib etc... installed,
- and after I finally figured out the /dev/vga problem,
- I tried running X386.. well, it SORTA worked, and KINDA
- locked up, but after that, any time I try to run X or X386
- or startx or xinit, I get BIG PROBLEMS... It gives
- the X386 startup message, and then hangs...
-
- The only hint I get is that it leaves a "core.X386" file
- as a residue of sorts..
-
- Anyone have any clues what I am doing wrong?
-
- I'm lost... I wanna go back home to msdosland... :(
