I was just running 'emerge -U world' on my system and the system locked part way thru the update. I hard reset my system and now I can't start X. I normally use KDM, but plain old 'startx' doesn't work either. The error message that I get when I try 'startx' is :

I haven't changed anything in XFree86Config and it doesn't appear that emerge has either. I already tried reinstalling nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel, but it has no effect. I'm using a GeForce2 MX video card. I can send XFree86.log if needed. Please help. I don't know what could be causing this. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
