I'm having trouble with configuring X. I had a lot of installation 
problems to begin with, and the only way I could install a working 
system without the installation freezing was to install the "minimal" 
system. So now I'm trying to install and set up all the other goodies 
manually. There was no XF86Config file installed, so I'm trying to set 
it up using XFree86 -configure. When I run that, however, all i get is 
this:
