Repost of old mail now that I've made my ISP register their mail
relays (which took three months for them to understand!).
I know this is ancient but being in the archives may help someone.
It was a kernel problem.
I made a new kernel from sources of about 8 hours ago and the problem
has dissappeared from my home machine (have to wait until after the
long weekend [- in Oz] to test the work machine).
It seems that something in the May 29th kernel was causing problems
for X.
