<div>Hi Michael,</div> <div> </div> <div>Thanks for this suggestion; just before I read this, however, I discovered the following recent thread on the Ubuntu forums:</div> <div> </div> <div><a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=121901&highlight=display">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=121901&highlight=display</a></div> <div> </div> <div>The poster described the string he input into BootX (which turned out to be a slight variation of the string I had previously input).  Then I altered my xorg.conf file to match the poster's, and rebooted.  <br>Everything looks good now!  I'm so happy (especially since this didn't take days/weeks to figure out, as has been the case in the past)... </div> <div> </div> <div>Harold<br><br> </div> <div><span class="gmail_quote">On 3/7/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Michael Moore</b> <<a href="mailto:stuporglue@gmail.com">stuporglue@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</span> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid">> a string which -- again -- works great for keeping my CLI Ubuntu in order,<br>> but simply turns my GUI (Xubuntu) into a blank screen (after running the <br>> command 'sudo startxfce4').<br><br>Try to reconfigure the xserver by running this command:<br><br>sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg<br><br>It'll set up a new config file for xorg, and might fix your issues.<br>It's worked many times for me, but I haven't done it on a mac in quite <br>some time, and never one that old.<br><br>--<br>Michael Moore<br>-------------------------------<br><a href="http://www.stuporglue.org">www.stuporglue.org</a> -- Donate your used computer to a student that needs it.<br> <br>--<br>xubuntu-devel mailing list<br><a href="mailto:xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com">xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com</a><br><a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel </a><br></blockquote></div><br>
