I am a new Linux user. I use a version called ZipSlack. It is basically a
small version of Linux. I just downloaded all of the necessary files to run
X-Windows on it. I went through the installation process, and ran
xf86config. Now when I type startx to run X-Windows, It spits out a bunch
of mumbo-jumbo and then the screen goes dark, and my Monitor goes to power
saving mode (Basically turns off). I can't figure out what the problem is.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
