Subject: [gentoo-user] fluxbox without xorg-server? How do you start X?
Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2009 15:33:54 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5bdc1c8b0906261533o43c3af6evf6c85f55bb8db76f@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Just curious. The fluxbox ebuild doesn't emerge xorg-server which
means I now have a machine with fluxbox emerged but I don't know how
to start it as there is no xstart on the machine.
What would be the lightest way to get X running right now? man
startfluxbox suggests fluxbox can be started from .xsession if I use
xdm and xdm doesn't seem to require very much be emerged so I'm doing
that now.
The purpose of this experiment is that if I get X going then I have a
chance of seeing whether the the Open Source ati-driver TV feature out
actually works for my 9100 IGP chipset.
Thanks in advance,
Mark
