I downloaded the Aurora Linux distro (I think it was 2.0), burned the  
CD's and installed the OS.  I had to use the text interface because  
the graphical install did not work, I did not see anything on the  
screen.  The interactive text install worked, but when I tried to  
reboot the system it fires up the X Server display and then bombs for  
reasons that are not clear to me.  I think the graphics card is a Sun  
Turbo GX type.  The machine is original SUN equipment that was used  
for medical applications.  It only has about 256 MB of RAM in it  
currently and a CD ROM drive.  I am going to try and reinstall the  
system from CD, but I was wondering if anyone has suggestions about  
how to get X Windows working with KDE or Gnome, what I might do to  
jazz of the RAM (not even sure what it can hold max, although it looks  
like there are 8 slots).

I'd like to use the machine as a server running tomcat, MySQL, PHP  
server app and a fair number of images on it as well.  I think the  
current disk drive is only about 8 GB as well.  If it can handle a  
decent amount of RAM and a several 100 GB disk drive we might be in  
business.  Looks like it used SCSI for the peripherals.

Any help appreciated.

BTW, after it bombed out of the XServer start up it fall back into  
single user or command line mode and I am able to log in as root and  
execute most command line functions.  I tried startx as root and get  
the same error.

Thanks.
