Here is a strange twist. Remember how I said I actually got sound and the first log on setup screens? Nothing since. Just the blue wallpaper and the little mouse clock until about 2 minutes later it pops back to a bash prompt. The mouse service stops quite a bit. Trying service gpm stop won't work, saying "failed" since it is already stopped. You can do a start and it will respond with ok. Anybody have any ideas why this service would stop on a regular basis? While X is loading the mouse service is running because I can move the clock/mouse pointer while it is trying fire up. Right this very instant, it will not stay loaded. ?? I'm using a Gigabyte MB with a Promise raid controller, USB 2.0, Firewire. I disabled all the above to see if that made a difference. none. ?? I'm really stumped on this one. I'm thinking I need to increase the debug level so we can get more info on the error log. I've been looking but so far I've not found the switch to do so. Xfree.org's web site pretty much is spartan. Very hard to find anything there.
