Re: [LUG] Xandros boot problems

Hi All,

Yesterday I ran Xandros Networks and updated my system with all the latest available patches etc.

Today X will not load - claims that two modules "speedo" and "keyboard" do not exist.

Presumably I can fix this from CLI (which I can get into).

Suggestions how to do that please :)

Kind regards,

Julian


Hi, it should simply be a matter of editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. My favourite text editor is joe, so i'll use that in this example.

As root, run 'joe /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
Go down to where it says 'Section "Module"' and remove the lines trying
to load the offending modules ('Load "speedo"' and 'Load "keyboard"')
Save and exit (ctrl+k, s, enter, ctrl-k, q)
Then try to start X again.
