I’m using Edgy Eft as a live cd only, I didn’t install it on the local hard drive.įirst boot: X would not start and I got the error “Failed to start the xserver…” By looking at the detailed error info and scrolling down(which isn’t apparent when the scroll bars are all this random screwed up looking character) I saw somethinng like “screens found but none have a useable configuration.” I’m posting my notes here so the next guy(maybe you?) doesn’t have to repeat my work or can maybe get some ideas on whatever problem they’re actually working on. The conclusion of my trials was a failure at starting X11. I am outlining here my attempt to run Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft on a brand new Gateway mx8711 laptop.
