Hi All! Maybe someone can help me. I recently
updated
to the 3.3.2 supllementary fork at ftp.suse.com. Everything seems to be running fine so far, but
when I
opened the control to look at my video settings I
got
this error message in YasT: "To access the X11 system, the XFree86 package
must
be installed. Do you want to install it now?"
?? Huh ?? If XFree86 is not a part of (current) running filesys, then is Xorg supporting all
graphics
independently? I'm using a Viewsonic P225fb (22")
w/
ATI Radeon 7500 and getting edge-to-edge display
at
1600X1200---no problem; rock steady.
Xorg is a replacement for XFree86. So, if you have Xorg running (installed) then it means that XFree86 is not running (installed). I do not think this has anything to do with KDE.
What it is that you would like to do with your video settings? Most likely, there is a way to change them for Xorg without having to use yast2.
