I am using Slackware 7 on my IBM Thinkpad. I am unable to configure it to display a graphical environment. Typing startx usually generates a few errors. The system, however, does boot into the shell environment without any issues or problems. I have been able to setup Slackware 7 successfully on a Dell Optiplex desktop PC. Not sure why the laptop is posing difficulties? Any help will be greatly appreciated!
After starting startx, here is what I get:
config error: /etc/xf86config:208
protocol "(NULL)"
mouse type not supported by this OS
x connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
Thanks for all replies!!!
