HD Install :: Installing xfree86.dsl, some questions



Hi ! My probem with the HD install was solved just installing the dsl-3.0-syslinux.iso instead of the normal ones. Now, I have to get working the touchscreen. So now I'm going to install xfree86.dsl, because I heard that the touchscreen will work with it. Now, after following the "manual extension install", what should I do to change the actual X for the new xfree86 ? And, what is the file that I have to edit to get the touchscreen working ? Another little question : I have no icons on my desktop, what happens ? Thank you and hope to get help as soon as possible.

See the .info

Probably /etc/X11/XFree86Config - depending on what device you are using, you'll might need to get different drivers.

This has been answered around the forums, and the way to do it depends on your DSL version afaik.
