I just installed Denian (latest stable release). When I first tried to start x, I got a message that there was no such command. Doing apt-get install xbase-clients enabled me to do XF86Setup until...
I tried to choose my TNT2 video card (Riva 32 MB), which was listed in the roster as "generic." When I tried to select my card, I was unable to do so and was instead prompted as follows:
The server required by your card in not installed! Please, abort, install the SVGA server as /usr/x11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA and run this program again.
How do I do this? I chose to install the complete and core X components during the original install. Did I miss something? Could it be because Debian couldn't identify my card during the original installation, or is there a way for me to put those files in place now so that I can finally start X!
