Hi again, I have a RH 7.1 box that I did not install X on due to memory limitations at the time. Since I now have more memory, I'd like to run X. So I installed the binary distribution of XFree86 4.2.0. But it won't startup w/ the usual startx. I can briefly see something on the screen, but after a couple of seconds the monitor goes into standby mode. I haven't had a chance to try older versions yet. Is there a way I can run the RH install utility and install JUST X? The system is running successfully, so I don't want to upgrade or reinstall.
