I am trying to install XFree86. I followed the faqs and downloaded all the
necessary X312* files and installed them. I ran xf86config and put in all
the necessary fields. I think they are right because they worked when I
installed X on Linux. Now when I run startx the system reboots! I
redirected sterr to a file and don't see any blaring errors.
I'm running on a :
Compaq p60
40M ram
FreeBSD 2.0.5
Please help. Send mail directly if possible.
Thanks in advance.
