I upgraded my laptop from stable with a few testing packages to all testing via an accident with dselect last night. The next time I booted, I realized that X had broken. Running startx results in a half-inch flickering band on the left side of the screen, and nothing at all on the rest of it. I have to use ctrl+alt+backspace to get back to a prompt. Before the upgrade I was not having any problems with X.
I've never had X work less than perfectly before, so I haven't any idea where to start troubleshooting. Any suggestions of things I ought to try? It's a Dell Inspiron 5000, with an ATI Rage Mobility P card, using the laptop's builtin screen only (no external monitor). Also, while I generally use KDE, I tried starting Enlightenment instead and got the same results. -- Caitrin [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
