it

Can you tell us how you installed that system? Did you use a Fluxbuntu CD
for the installation?

the error that i get when i type startx is

startx

X: warning; process set to priority -1 instead of requested priority 0

Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
and start again.

Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keygiving up.
xinit: Interrupted system call (errno 4): unable to connect to X
server xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error.

While I never used fluxbox I would expect the desktop to be started
automatically after startup without the startx command. And from the
error message I would expect that there is a X server running already.
You can check it with the command

ps ax|grep X

If you see /usr/bin/X running, try to switch to the desktop with
CTRL-ALT-F7. If you are still at the command line you can't start
programs like mozilla because those programs should be started from the
desktop not from the command line.
