I've downloaded XFree86 from agate.berkeley.edu (after the kernels were
straightened out) but can't get it to go. If I do a startx >& startx.log,
the following is what I end up with. I've checked the paths and done a
setenv DISPLAY ptw064:0 (ptw064 is my computer's name) and I'm fairly
sure the display paramters should work. Any ideas? Email to the address
below.
