Hey,
I got a very old PC which was purchased 6 years ago. I use Debian netinstall CD installed the base Debian etch system. I have been trying to install basic GUI on it. Therefore I execute the following command:
Quote:
#aptitude update
aptitude install twm x-window-system
|
I was asked for some questions regarding to my hardware. I was not quite sure whether my answer is right because I'm quite new to computer hardware and I have no means to find the manuals for the old PC.
After that the startx gave me the following errors

I was trying dpkg-reconfigure xfree86 but it seems this does not bring me the interfaces where I can reconfigure my x-window-system.
Can any of you give me some hint on how can I get over these problems please?
Thanks a lot in advance!
