1.0.5 Chubby CD: Blank screen in X. Command line works.

[nibl]

I just got the latest Puppy (chubby) ISO and booted from the CD. X does not start though I just get a blank screen. I pressed Alt-1 (I think) which showed the console.

Is there a boot options for different displays?
(DSLinux, and Knoppix work fine.)

Thanks, nibl.

At the console type

Code: Select all

#xorgwizard

That will take you through the process of setting your video up properly for Puppy.

There are no boot options necessary. Once you have X running, Puppy will save the configuration for you.

Hope that helps.

Nothing is found when I type xorgwizard at the prompt. I also tried:

# find / | grep xorg

and recieved no results. Where is the script exactly?

Thanks, nibl.

Look in /usr/sbin

Do you know which version it is? If not, look in /etc/puppyversion.

Thanks guys, I think it's because the latest Chubby Puppy is only version 1.0.5. I'll try the normal Puppy 2.1.2.
