Hi,

Here is the problem we experience. On bootup (RedHat 7.3 out of the box), when
it comes to starting X windows, the display starts flickering and does so for a
minute or so. Then the following message is displayed:

Id "X" is respwning itself too often. Disabled for 5 nimutes.

The log file is attached.

From your log file it seems that you have a nvidia GeForce2 videocard, but you are trying to use the "sis" driver. In the "Device" section of your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file try replacing the line:

Driver "sis"

with the line:

Driver "nv"

Hope this helps.

Best Regards
