The X-server always crashes when I try to start X after installation. I<br>> have done a re-install with low-res option, same result. I can run the<br>laptop<br>> at runlevel 3, it seems normal. During the installation the screen text<br>and<br>> graphics looked very good, and the external mouse and touchpad worked<br>> normally.<br>><br>> 2. I found that "bringing up eth0" always gave the result "failed" . (The<br>> ethernet card does work as the laptop connects with internet via ADSL<br>under<br>> windows). According to the specs, the network car!
