.Hi Branden Robinson,
.I have just installed xserver-xfree86 4.0.2 on my debian/linux
.system, but now X cannot start at boot. I get no error messages, so
.i am not able to figure out what is going wrong.
One more observation.
As the command
/etc/init.d/xdm start
is entered by root, from a character terminal, X starts taking
almost 100 % of CPU time, but no display is used (that is vt7
is blank)
As that X process is killed (kill -9), another one starts up
that is to be killed too, as the former one.
Such occurrence of two next X processes has been observed
several times in my attempts di make X 4.0.2 up an running;
do you have any idea to explain such behavior?
thank you (and happy new year)
