Which version of X is currently installed on your system? (Run > "X -version" and post the output.) You are right, after rebooting my system, the X server is not running anymore. Typing 'startx' as a normal user, I get the error message: xauth: creating new authority file /home/christian/.serverauth.3054 xinit: Server error. And 'X --version' indicates: true (GNU coreutils) 5.97 Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc. This is free software.
