I recently upgraded from etch to lenny, and most features of the system seemed to be working.
After a day or two with the new system, I am getting a character-based screen to log in, instead of the X display. Below, I give the output from typing "startx", and the xorg.conf file. ***************** Output from startx ****************** Script started on Mon 28 Jun 2010 06:30:15 AM CDT localhost:/home/ceblair# startx X Window System Version 7.1.1 Release Date: 12 May 2006 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.1.1 Build Operating System: UNKNOWN Current Operating System: Linux localhost 2.6.26-2-486 #1 Sat Dec 26 08:37:39 UTC 2009 i686 Build Date: 29 May 2008 Module Loader present Markers: (--) probed, (**) from config file, (==) default setting, (++) from command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational, (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
