Hi Tim,
I am running Debian testing with XFCE desktop. I am guessing that I
need to reconfigure X but I don't know the correct command, can
somebody please advise??
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch07.en.html#_the_re_configuration_of_the_x_server
explains how to have the packing system re-step through the initial
configuration it did on installation using dpkg-reconfigure(8). Maybe
that will fix it.
Cheers, Ralph.

I have already tried those suggestion earlier, I tired them while logged
in as normal in a terminal window and then by dropping to run level 1
and trying from the command line. Of the three dpkg commands only one
gives a response and that was dpkg-reconfigure --prority=low x11-common
which just ask me who it should let startx both the other two just
return me to the cli within a second with no errors or anything.
I have tried starting from a previous (older) kernel (I only have two
installed) but that made no difference.
