DEFT 7.1 : Little X11 "Bug" and Root password after install

Postby Draleg » Wed 23 May 2012, 21:35

Hello, for my job I have installed DEFT 7.1 on a old tower (Thanks LXDE).

Not a lot of difficulties but juste 2 little bit bugs:

First one: After updating(not upgrading) during the installation, the Nvidia drivers were installed. After reboot no more X11 server.
--> To fix temporally (or definitively) the problem:
Create a 10-monitor.conf in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ containing:
Code: Select all
Section "Monitor"
        Identifier              "Monitor0"
EndSection
 
Section "Device"
        Identifier              "Device0"
        Driver                  "vesa"  #choose the driver used for this monitor
EndSection
 
Section "Screen"
        Identifier              "Screen0" #Collapse Monitor and Device section to screen section
        Device                  "Device0"
        Monitor                 "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth            16 #Choose the depth (16||24)
        SubSection              "Display"
                Depth           16
                Modes           "1024x768_75.00" #Choose the resolution
        EndSubSection
EndSection


The line Driver "vesa" force to use vesa rather than nvidia.

Second one: the password of root, just use "passwd root" with your sudo's user.

Otherwise, great install ;).

Best regards.
