I did what you said but now when I type startx it comes back with the
following message:

/root/.xinitrc: /usr/AfterStep-1.4.5.55N/afterstep is a directory.

It seems as though something is not all there.

When I setup AfterStep and ran the 'make' command I noticed a couple of
error messages scrolled by they are as follows:

X11/xpm.h: no such file or directory

ld: cannot open -1xpm: no suchfile or directory

Does that mean anything to anyone?
