to avoid this problem, install as "expert" and check the video configuration durring install. what video card do you use? some cards are not supported in xfree4.0 and I would bet the "respawning to fast" is related to the video config setup. if you have the problem after you reinstall, then we can work thru it, but I bet if you get the video setup durring install you wont' have no problems. just remember to not install as "recommended" and do as "expert" and check the video config during install
