Okay...we'll have to do some editing of some of yopers files. Bootup a live cd, mount the yoper partition, and then edit yopers /etc/inittab.
Add a port to the file that reads:That should let terminals bee created in F1 -> F6 so that you can run SaX2# TERMINALS

That doesn't work, either.
Okay, I've got a working Ubuntu system. I tried to copy the Ubuntu xorg.conf to the Yoper installaion, but it turned out that Yoper had a file with a different name. Are the 2 files compatible with each other? Can I copy the contents of one file into the other?
I wanted to try out Yoper. It seems that I won't be able to........Registered Linux User #394578
- 08-30-2005 #14No and yes. If the names are different (for instance XF86Config-4 versus xorg.conf) then copying the file over verbatim won't do the trick since your OS is going to look for the file under the name it's used to, not the one you provide.

Okay, here's the errors I get :
1. On bootup, while initializing X, my monitor gives a warning "Out of Frequency" and switches off. This is because it supports a maximum of 1024x768 screen resolution at 65HZ.
2. None of dylunio's solutions work.
3. Pasting the contents of the Ubuntu xorg.conf into the Yoper XF86Config-4 gives me this message at bootup :
"Please wait 20 seconds for X to startup. SOME BLAH BLAH HERE. If it doesn't startup in 20 seconds, reboot your computer and press the "restore default settings" button in Sax2". Sax2 doesn't start.
The solutions :
1. The editing of the file dylunio mntioned.
2. The editiong of XF86Config-4.
3. Faied attempts at getting into a virtual terminal.
Well?Registered Linux User #394578

Sax2 doesn't run. It didn't run at the first bootup, and I can't manage to get it running even now!
I'm eager to try Yoper.....Registered Linux User #394578
- 09-01-2005 #20You're welcome to jump ship and try Yoper, but you still haven't given me enough information to help you with SuSE. What do you mean by "SaX2 doesn't run"? Is the command not found? Does it start and error out? What?
