Now that you've configured X by using
xf86config,
you're probably eager to see it work. To start X, type the
command:
startx
Your system's screen should briefly go blank and then you should
see X's graphical desktop. Chapter 6,
Using the X Window System, will teach you
how to use X effectively.
WARNING: If the screen is garbled or remains blank for more than about 30
seconds, your X configuration may be faulty. Immediately turn off your
monitor or terminate X by pressing
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace.
To exit X, click on an unused part of the desktop and a pop-up
menu will appear. From the menu, select the Exit, Logout, or Quit menu
item. X shuts down, returning you to the familiar text-based interface
of the Linux shell prompt.
