I installed from a recent oi-dev-151a-text-x86.iso.
That iso is apparently a server model and doesn't really expect to
have a gnome desktop... I'd sooner try to install required pkgs and
whatever else I need to do to get X running, than start over with
though desktop iso.
I followed up installing OS by installing slim_install. I had the
notion that should have installed a basic gnome desktop.
When I say startx in my users (text console) terminal I get a nice
pure black screen, and nothing else.
Can anyone fill me in the steps one should follow to have an
accessible X desktop following installing from when user started with
oi-dev-151a-text-x86.iso?
What pkgs are required, any configurations that need to be done.. that
sort of stuff.
