Hi

I went on with the process of configuring the X window.After running the "startx" command I get the following error
Code:


X Window System Version 6.8.2
Release Date: 9 February 2005
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.8.2
Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.11-gentoo-r3 i686 [ELF]
Current Operating System: Linux localhost 2.6.11-gentoo-r3 #1 SMP Mon Nov 28 12:01:13 GMT 2005 i686
Build Date: 28 November 2005
   Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.X.Org
   to make sure that you have the latest version.
Module Loader present
Markers: (--) probed, (**) from config file, (==) default setting,
   (++) from command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational,
   (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Mon Nov 28 17:19:20 2005
(==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
 ------------------------------------------------------

This is followed by an Fatal Error description stating that the X-server was unable to connect to server


Regards
Vinod

The log file "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" would probably shed a bit more light on what's going wrong here.

You might also find the gentoo X guide to be helpful.
