I don't see any obvious errors in your XFree86.0.log. However, I'm confused by your mention of "startx" and inclusion of a gdm.log file. If gdm is running, then I would expect "startx" to fail. If gdm tried to start, but failed, and then you manually tried "startx", I'm unsure if gdm might not still be causing blockage (although I don't think so). Can you give us a bit more detail? Do you, or do you not have gdm installed? Is gdm trying to start and then failing? Are you then trying to run "startx"? Are you doing so as a normal user or as root (I believe root will fail on "startx" by default)? Are you getting any error messages that are not part of the log files you've included? Has it ever worked on this machine? What is the output of "lspci"? How much RAM is on your video card? Have you tried the "vga" driver in XF86Config-4 instead of "vesa", or have you tried dropping the DefaultDepth from 24 to 16? -- Kent West Westing Peacefully <http://kentwest.blogspot.com>
