I have never posted a message on a mailing list before, so I don't know how to head the letter or anything.
Anyway, here's the problem:
 
I had XFree86-4.2.1 installed and running just fine about a week ago. I decided that it was time to try to install the DRI drivers, so I went ahead and got the packages, installed them, and then X stopped working. I ended up giving up with 4.2.1 and upgrading to 4.2.99.3 and I get the same error. Here's what I get when I try to startx (this is from /var/log/XFree86.0.log):

This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any

XIO:  fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"
        after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
 
The last line XIO was not in the log file, but it is output on the screen when I attempt to startx. I don't think it has anything to do with my problem since it only appears when I startx and not just X.
I'm thinking this is a problem with a library or something, but I'm not sure. I can't figure out what's causing the read() to fail.
 
Thanks in advance,
