1.) I can't follow you: You first say that you do startx, but after you crash you are back to the xdm login screen. If you startx, you should be back at the console after crashing. If you have xdm running at terminal 7 (strg+alt+F7), you probably have to call startx like that 'startx -- :1' to stret X at terminal 8 (because xdm is aleady running at terminal 7 2.) If you use Gnome anyway, you are probably better off with gdm instead of xdm > I did do dpkg-reconfigure of xservers-common and set the 'startup-security > to console users'. same here > My log of ~/.xsession-errors (normal user, not root) tells me that the fonts > are not installed correctly.
