Rasperry Pi 2 won't startx, and how can I tell if the Pi is - Raspberry Pi Forums


i've connected laptop running w7 via usb serial cable using putty. pi boots up, lets me log in, when type "startx", seems shut down, won't respond further commands. how can tell if rasbian still running or not? why can't x started? first time firing thing up. (i complete noob) thanks!

ssh connections console only. if want use desktop you'll have either use pi directly or use lan, install x11vnc on pi, run when x session starts , connect through vnc client on laptop.
