Hello!
I recently installed Linux Redhat 8.0(pysche) onto a modified box I put together. That may be part of my problem, but I'll get there in a minute.
I'm a linux newbie, having only messed around with my new system for a little while. Everything appears to be ok, except I can't start X, and thus can't start KDE, Gnome, or other nice-looking programs like that.
Whenever I try to startx, I get the message:
(EE) No Devices detected.
and then later:
Fatal Server Error: No screens found.
Now, I don't have the exact logs onto my pc yet, but I could supply those if neccesary. Right now I'm just wondering what 's wrong. I've looked at the XF86Config file, modified it (after backing it up), and still have absolutely no idea what to do. It appears that X can't redognize my video card, but I don't know how to tell it where it is, nor can I thell where it is from looking at the innard of my computer! Can I, and How can I probe for the location? Please help, I'm trying to climb the everest of linux-- because it's there.
