Strange, it looks as if X was already running try the following: Ctrl Alt F7 (thats the first console that X uses) it should show something If not you can try to start another console: <snip> To run another X session in the remain virtual consoles (Ctl-Alt-F1/F6), go to the virtual console and login in there with usr name and passwd. Then, type startx -- :z where z is a number between 1 and 5, and indicates the X virtual console, vg. the first session is 0, the second is 1, etc. The X consoles are in Ctl-Alt-F7/F12. </snip>
