xdm starts? It must not be starting comletely as it starts X itself. Try disabling xdm by either uninstalling it (preffered) or doing a "/etc/init.d/xdm stop" and then a "update-rc.d -f xdm remove" (I think, please read the manpage first). Then try to startx. Maybe you will get different error messages? Do you have the svga xserver installed? I assume so because it should have said "file not found" if you didn't... > > > -- > Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null > -- Pat Mahoney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "We waste so many moments standing on convention" -- Nick Hexum
