IceWM configure help
« on: 9 February 2004, 23:15 »
I just downloaded the tar.gz file and am now trying to execute the configure file which is giving me this error:


Code: [Select]

Now it's saying that there is no X Window System found which doesn't make any sense since I'm using KDE right now..
I also just installed an NVIDIA driver for my graphics card, is there a way I could have fooked up the X Window System by installing this?

Thanks in advanced.

Try shutting down X entirely and running it from the text mode.

If you're in graphical login mode, type telinit 3 and then quit KDE, you should be at a fullscreen terminal.  Then run the configure script again.

Also, what distro is this?

Make sure you have XFree86-devel installed.
