You have to configure the Xwindows system before you can use it.
You also have to have the correct Xserver for your video card installed.
So for example:
You have RedHat 6.# installed and your system has a Riva TNT video card...
You can only use this system if you have installed the "nvida" (riva)
xserver and use a resolution (monitor) which your monitor can handle.
If you get this error message at boot time, you should re-install Linux and
be sure to choose a "text" based logon.
