To quote Bob Nielsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, # I had a problem with woody several days ago where X would die # immediately after starting, before the window manager took over. In # trying to fix it, I really messed up my X installation, so I decided to # downgrade to potato and did a fresh installation of 2.2r2. I did this # and everything was working fine (including X). # # Since I had started with a somewhat minimal installation I just added a # lot of new packages and now X dies immediately after starting with no # messages, which is the same behaviour I had before with woody. # # System is a K6/2-350 with 128 MB, Cirrus 5430-based video card with # 2048k videoram. # # Any ideas as to where I should be looking?
Lemme think. /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config /etc/X11/XF86Config[-4] and, if you're using GDM, /etc/X11/gdm/* (take a good look into the scripts in subdirectories there). Just a few thngs.
