Using vmware 2.0.1 running on a 6.2 system with 2.2.16-3 kernel. Attempted to do a gui install of winston beta2. The install fails with the following: Unknown card, falling back to VGA16 Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 256, in ? result = xserver.startX () File "/usr/lib/anaconda/xserver.py". line 84, in startX if not os.access (serverPath, os.X_OK): TypeError: argument 1: expected string, None found Install exited abnormally. It appears that nothing is fixed from beta1. I thought I reported this under beta1 but could not find it so I am entering it again. Gene
