Please post the output of 'diff -u oldconfig newconfig', where oldconfig and newconfig are replaced by the paths of the old and new kernel configuration files. Hmm. Nothing suspicious as far as I can see. Since it says server already running in the original error message, was there perhaps a stray hidden lockfile or socket in /tmp/? I cleaned up the /tmp directory, but the new kernel still refuses to allow X to boot. In my original post I failed to include this part of the error message, which comes at the end: XIO: fatal IO error 54 (Connection reset by peer) on X server :0.0 after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining. As I said earlier, when I unload the new kernel and boot the old one I have no problem bringing up X.

Problem solved. Somehow I didn't just comment out, I actually deleted this line: options INET6 # IPv6 communications protocols Weird. Anyway, I reinserted the line, and now everything works fine.

I get the same first three lines of the error message in my Xorg.0.log file My X server is compiled without hal support. Maybe that makes the difference. You could try starting X with 'startx -- -nolisten tcp' on a kernel without IPv6.
