- Hi,
- Over the weekend I installed Xfree v1.1, followed the distribution README
- files. Made changes to Xconfig file in /usr/X386/lib/X11, mainly to do
- with my serial mouse and the Monitor timings -
-
- i.e
-
- mouse"/dev/ttys0" # my serial mouse is on com1
- Baudrate1200
- Samplerate150
- Emulate3Buttons
-
- Modes "1024x768" "640x480" #I have Trident 8900C chipset (TVGA)
-
-
- I also copied /usr/X386/lib/X11/xinit/.xinitrc to /root
-
- and then invoked
-
- startx
-
- Here, I got the following messages
-
- Unable to handle kernel paging request at address c0000004
- Oops:0000
- EIP: 0008:0001D95C
- EFLAGS: 00010206
- fs: 0017
- base: 00000000, limit: C0000000
- pid: 58 process nr:9
- 8b 50 04 8b 50 08 8b 50 38 8a
- giving up
- xinit: Invalid argument (errno 22) unable to connect to Xserver
- xinit: No such process ( " 3) serever error
- [/root] Unable to handle kernel paging request at address c000002c
- Oops: 0000
- ..... some more of the above stuff
- task [0] (swapper) killed: unable to recover
- kernel panic: Trying to free up swapper memory space.
- In swapper task - not syncing
-
- At this point my machine hung.
-
- Given that I have the following :
-
- Linux/Minix partition : 40 Mb
- Swap partition : 7 Mb
- Linux : 0.98 p2
- gcc : 2.2.2.d7
- gcc jump libraries : 4.1
-
- [Q] Whats gone wrong ?
-
- [Q] Is there something I have missed out in Xconfig ?
