Hello, is your system attempting to run the 64-bit version of the Xorg server, as it should? Maybe you could try from the cmd line the get up the 64-bit server. If it does not work then pls. share your /var/log/Xorg.0.log with the list. Try # /usr/X11/bin/amd64/Xorg -configure and then either copy the resulting ~/xorg.conf.new to the default place /etc/X11/xorg.conf, or point to it by means of Xorg's "-config foo" option, such as ... # /usr/X11/bin/amd64/Xorg -config ~/xorg.conf.new We need your /var/log/Xorg.0.log.
