look at ~/.gnome-errors and ~/.xsession-errors for clues. If you <Ctrl>-<Alt>-<Del>, look at these from console before starting gnome or xsession. Maybe check: /var/log/messages, /var/log/kern.log, /var/log/syslog Run something like xosview to see if CPU usage goes to 100%. If so, run gtop to see what is running in background. sometime mouse in X conflict with gpm. If so, disable gpm or set mouse device in XF86Config-4 to use /dev/gpmdata. I hope this helps. -- Jerome
