Dear X86ers,

I have a problem firing up X as a user....

The desk guide alert in gnome says I am not running a gnome compliant 
manager....  I also have an error message in the logfile saying 
authentication rejected and other nasties.


Output follows:

Release Date: February 17 2001
        If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer
        than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting
        problems.  (see http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)
