Well I’ve got the task of creating two Samba File servers at work. Its using the Dell SC440 hardware. I’ve had a few problems with the gfx card in it. Its some ATI based affair. Found that if I install Gnome and other bumpf from the CD/DVD I am able to get an X session. If I don’t and install it after, invoking an init 5 gives me an error stating that the X session started and stopped too many times. This happens with many different configurations of X.

Running a reconfigure of the X service gets me a background and a mouse pointer, but on a reboot back to it crashing the X session and falling back to CLI.

So I’ve just left it at command line only, thats all I need anyway and having X on a server just makes me go all funny.
