Hi there
I've just installed Slackware on my machine but when I try to start the startx I get the error in the name of the thread.

It looks like X couldn't find the right driver for your graphics card. Have you checked "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" to see if you have the right settings? Also, make sure you have run either xorgsetup or xorgconfig if you haven't done so.

I have done that, what is more I had this in mind and i tried checking the driver in conf it was "nv" I tried changeing it to "nvidia" but it gave me another error, I am with Nvidia G240 1GB any other things I have configured Xorg.conf with xorgsetup and all seems ok in the file

If you installed slackware13.1
Try renaming your xorg.conf to xorg.conf.old (or something)
Then try starting x.

Lots of times a .conf file is not needed for x.

Mine worked without one (but I did need one to add a modeline)
