Woody: X won't start after upgrade to 4.1

2001-10-15 Thread Tim Wood
Hello, I have just updated/upgraded my Woody system with apt-get. This changed XFree86 from 4.0.3 to 4.1.1 When I type "startx" the server starts then exits. I did not change anything. I ran xf86config but get the same effect. My Xfree86.0.log is 22kb so I'm reluctant to post it straight away.
