Since I could not get the XFree86.dsl to work, I tried downloading the full version of XFree86.
When I try to install XFree86, the installation seems to initially go OK but after a certain time, I start to get error messages stating that there is no more space available and the installation aborts.
Since the installation is copying files to /ramdisk/ I cannot imagine there is a space problem (I have 1Gb RAM) - does the problem occour because /ramdisk/ is linked to the 64Mb USB stick I am booting from?
On a similar subject, I have also tried to install the i915Graphics driver and 955 patch downloaded from the Intel site and the Synaptics driver for the touchpad on my laptop. In both cases I cannot install the drivers - the Intel driver installation reports a required utility is missing and the Synaptics driver does not have an executable install file.
Does the installation of drivers require the use of an apt or dpkg utility or similar?
Any help would be much appreciated.
