Good evening all! I was demonstrating SuSE to a friend of mine, first the shells, then the 'games without x', then finally X. I went to try and use a different terminal, and severely killed X. Now, when i use either program to set up X (text or graphic), i go through the motions, then when i try to startx, i get the message '...X11_xxxx doesn't appear to be a binary file. I'm aborting now.' My question is: how do i make it see the binary file, or edit the last known working binary file to remove the offending character(s)? Thanks for your help :) jim seiberling

Hi, Jim, I recognize that error message. What I did was use YAST to reinstall my SVGA server.This corrected the problem with me. You might be using another server . Check out with YAST if it it installed or not. Please disregard this reply if I am beside the point. regards, Lars A.
