I have proudly installed Arch, and I have gotten xorg, kdebase, xorg-input-drivers, xorg-video-drivers installed. (Typing from konqueror now) I have configured ~/.xinitrc to use kde when I startx. Obviously, this is a very basic system at the moment, (my fonts look like I'm on a Commodore vic-20 :P ) but I am having trouble figuring out how to get rid of the black "X" in the center of the screen. Can anyone help? What did I omit? Thank you! EDIT: SOLVED! Downloaded nvidia driver pacman -Sy nvidia then did nvidia-xconfig startx Done! Last edited by Misfit138; 11-25-2006 at 08:28 PM.
