Sirs,

Having Mandrake 8.2 and using it extensively, it was a nasty shock to find I
could no longer boot into X windows. My boot-up drops me into level 3 and if
I startx it crashes and returns me to the Terminal. I have tryed xf86config
with all the correct entries without success and I have also reinstalled
(without reformatting), but no X windows.

Has anyone any ideas please.

Malcolm Candlish.
