In a private email someone wrote::
Code:

From the start it's going smoothly (Feeling easier than gentoo) until "lin XOrg7" after it finish I'm type "startx" basic window manager it's not coming out to say hello as it should but this come out instead.

(EE) Failed to load module "intel" (module dose not exist, 0)
(EE) Failed to load module "fbdev" (module dose not exist, 0)
(EE) Failed to load module "vesa" (module dose not exist, 0)
(EE) No driver available.

Fatal server error:
no screens found
giving up
xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error

What Did I Do Wrong?

Basically you need ti install the extra drivers required by your hardware (see lvu section xorg7/driver)

This, and a bit more, was covered in the comments when the 1.6.4-beta1 ISO was released.

You mentioned my User Report but don't forget that it is three years and three ISOs out of date now, and lots of things have changed. In fact, it would be really really cool if you could write your own User Report describing what you, as a first-time Lunar user, found useful, difficult, confusing, etc. so that (a) it will help other people and (b) we can see what areas we need to improve or document on the Wiki.
