- Regarding my being unable to startup X386 1.2E on my system
- (I get a blank screen and then nothing...apparently xinit is
- gagging) someone suggested that the 386bsd kernel packed with
- the X386 1.2E 1.0.1 binaries on agate.berkeley.edu doesn't work.
- Is this true? If so, could someone either A) tell me where
- I can get a kernel which will work with X386 or B) tell me
- what the kernel problem is and where the patches are, so I
- can attempt a kernel remake myself?
-
- Lastly, is anyone going to place the X386 1.2E 1.0.2 binaries
- in an archive, like on agate? I keep hearing people say
- "check the pub/incoming/X386 directory" but boys, there's
- nothing there!
-
- Thanks.
