OK, I am stuck. I cannot get the log file. I am mostly ignorant when

The main error sems to be "fail to initiate core devices."
In the past, when similar problems occured, I have been able to get
into X by using the NV or VESA driver instead of the nvidia, but now
there is no way I can get into X.
Does it maybe refer to "core input devices"?
If so, that probably means it can't find your mouse.
When you say you "cannot get the log file", do you mean you can't find
it? you can't understand it? you can't copy it into an email to post to
this list?

Thanks Kent...I think it does say " cannot find pointer"or something like
that, also "fail to initiate core devices"
and fail to load GLX.
What I mean is I have no way to copy and paste that log to bring it to my
windows partition so I can email it.
I apologise for my ignorance, I guess I've been lucky to keep the system
running for 1-1/2 yrs with the little knowledge I have.
I learned "as needed" to keep it going.
