All that says to me is that the config file used has a bad error in the "first line" as it configured nothing period. > waiting for X server to shut down So it might seem except that both /etc/X11/XF86Config and XF86Config-4 are backup copies. Further, they fully support root's starting X. Further, I can readily create new account that start x just fine. It's only when I reboot that they can no longer start X. I concluded from this that the boot process sets a value somewhere that prevents X from starting. Perhaps an authentification problem, but the log above sure offers no clue.
