    Access to X Server

    I am trying to install Moneydance on a desktop pc running Xandros 3.0. I try to run the installer and get the following:

    Starting Installer ...
    This installer needs access to an X Server.
    If this is not possible, you can run the installer in unattended mode
    by passing the argument -q to the installer.

    Can I get access to an X server (whatever that is)? Or how do I pass an argument?

    Thanks

    An X server is simply an implementation of X, such as xfree86 or xorg. You normally start X with the following command:
    Code:
    startx
    If that doesn't work, just pass the -q argument as asked:
    Code:
    installer -q
    where installer is the installer program.
