Hello to all,

I can't get X-Windows going. I receive the following error msg:

_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111

Using Red Hat ver 4.2 (installs kernel 2.03.30)
CPU P200
Motherboard: J-571B 5571 Pentium with Pipeline BUrst Cache main board
(SiS 5571 Chipset) 32 MB RAM
Video card: Jaton Video-58P 2MB memory
Monitor: TECO horizontal refresh 31.4K, vertical 70.1 Hz (this from on
screen status display)

I have also tried the two options suggested in the Readme:
pci_burst_off and w32_interleave_off, bothe seperately & together, but
always the same error mesage.

I am logged in as root and the XF86Setup file is in the dir path
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11

Interestingly, this directory listing shows a file called XF86Config
but when I try to look at it with more< XF86Config I get the error
msg: bash:  XF86Config: No such file or directory

Your help appreciated,
