Re: Errors while trying to start xserver(xvesa, xnvidia, etc)

Hi again. Tried the suggestion below, without success :( Here's the
errors generated:

shroomz:/opt/fdo/bin # /opt/fdo/bin/Xvesa -mode 0x117 :1 -ac & sleep 5
&& xterm -display :1
[1] 2629

Fatal server error:
Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't
already running
[1]+  Exit 1                  /opt/fdo/bin/Xvesa -mode 0x117 :1 -ac
Warning: This program is an suid-root program or is being run by the
root user.
The full text of the error or warning message cannot be safely formatted
in this environment. You may get a more descriptive message by running
the
program as a non-root user or by removing the suid bit on the
executable.
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: %s

Yes, i've checked for sockets and stuff in /tmp, netstat lsof. Nodda. ..
The last part of this error is obviously caused by the Xserver not
starting.

Could it be a problem that i'm running the 2.6 kernel(2.6.4) and
framebuffer?
