Can't run XServer on slitaz cooking version
  • otaerisotaeris February 2011
    Hi,

    Booting stable version on my notebook without a problem.
    Cooking is ok in text mode. Problems start when
    starting X. After running X or startX I see few lines of log
    and screen goes blank. Its possible to achieve same result by starting CD
    with args: slitaz irqpoll screen=1024x768x16

    _XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6
    _XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for inet6/slitaz:1
    _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to open listener for inet6

    Use the same graphics chip specific driver that works in slitaz-3.0 or lspci command to determine your VGA adapter chip and get it from the cooking repository.
    Kill X with ctrl+alt+bkspace if you can't reboot with bootcode screen=text
    Login as root:
    Internet:
    #tazx
    No internet:
    #tazpkg install /path/to/xorg-xf86-video-your.chips.name.tazpkg
    #nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/60-Device.conf
    replace Driver "vesa" with your drivers name (intel,nv,etc...)
    Start slim :
    #slim
    Xserver starts/slim login appears

    Add slim to /etc/rcS.conf RUN_DAEMONS= to autostart slim, it's removed by screen=text

    This is common error you see in Xorg.0.log when X starts:
    _XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6
    _XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for inet6/slitaz:1
    _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to open listener for inet6
