Then when I did the uninstall it said that driver was not installed. So I proceeded to install the suggested version. The install seemed to work fine. Unfortunately, nothing has changed. When I 'startx', I get the following: X Window System Version 1.3.0 Release Date: 19 April 2007 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 1.3 Build Operating System: Linux_2.6.24.5-server-2mnb Mandriva Current Operating System: Linux dap002 2.6.22.9-desktop-1mdv #1 SMP Thu Sep 27 04:07:04 CEST 2007 i686 Build Date: 07 August 2008 Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version.

It appears to me that what ever process creates that socket is not installed or is not running. I also question the line that says "Using vt 7" rather then saying something about 'i810'. My xorg.conf has the driver set to 'i810'. Is there a way to verify the installation of X11 or to force a reinstall? Now that I have the rpm database rebuilt maybe I need to force a reinstall of all X11. <hr />Send e-mail faster without improving your typing skills. <a href='http://windowslive.com/Explore/hotmail?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_hotmail_acq_speed_122008' target='_new'>Get your Hotmail® account.</a></body> </html>
