I was fiddling in the Control Center and changed my XFree86 version rom 
3.* to 4.* (this is in Mdk 8.2).  It _seemed_ to install correctly, and 
I got the message to log out and restart X.  However, now X starts, 
crashes, starts, crashes and so on in a loop I can't break out of. 
Reconfiguring in failsafe mode only allows me to change the screen 
resolution, and my last-ditch repair mode, which is to perform an 
upgrade without actually upgrading anything resulted, on configuring X, 
win an error message about not being able to display the default font.

All the relevant Xfree86 packages seem to be there, but I could be 
missing something obscure.

Does anyone have any ideas?
