Hello, I was hoping to get some insight as to why my Thinkpad T40
(2373-82U) can't start X when booting, or at all for that matter. I've
followed installation instructions as closely as possible, as well as
looked at other T40's config files for reference/examples. I installed
Debian 3.0 r3 and when I use startx, i get these lines at the end of the
returned message:
(--) Assigning device section with no busID to primary device
(EE) No devices detected.
Fatal server error:
no screens found
This might be an obvious error, but I'm not sure what to change. Any
info over this would be much appreciated. Below is a copy of my config
file.
thanks much!
