Hi, I am using Debian/Etch. My system crashed while using gnome and imagemagick. After a hard reboot I find I am unable to launch any window manager (be it kde gnome or fvwm). All I see is a grey background with a functioning cursor. No matter what I put in my ~/.xinitrc this is the result. This doesn't seem to be a hardware problem as I replaced the video card and it made no difference. Besides if I boot from a live linux cd (INSERT security/rescue toolkit) the window manager works just fine.
I even tried putting in older video cards lying around (first ATI Rage pro and now Matorx G200). Also I reinstalled the x-window-system* and x11proto* packages (of Debian/Etch). I have made no cutomisations to the Xwindows system or the Window Managers. This is a standard Debian/Etch official distribution. Would be grateful for any suggestions you can make. regards thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
