Package: xserver-common
Version: 4.3.0-7
Severity: normal
After returning from APM suspend, X crashed when I moved the mouse.
I rebooted using Alt-SysRq-S-U-B. I use the ext3 filesystem so this
shouldn't be disastrous. I then tried to start X but it crashes on
startup after displaying the grey background and the X cursor.
Here is the log:

waiting for X server to shut down
------------------------------------------------------------------
I tried reinstalling xserver-xfree86 but at the end of the configuration
I get this message:
start_configlet: configlet in path /usr/share/configlets/xserver-common is bad
start_configlet: configlet in path /usr/share/configlets/timezoneconf is bad
I don't know whether or not this is relevant.
I then tried reinstalling all X packages I have installed, namely:
lbxproxy libdps1 libice-dev libice6 libsm-dev libsm6 libx11-6 libx11-dev
libxaw7 libxext-dev libxext6 libxft1 libxi-dev libxi6 libxmu-dev libxmu6
libxmuu-dev libxmuu1 libxp-dev libxp6 libxpm-dev libxpm4 libxrandr-dev
libxrandr2 libxt-dev libxt6 libxtrap-dev libxtrap6 libxtst-dev libxtst6
libxv-dev libxv1 pm-dev proxymngr x-dev x-window-system-core xbase-clients
xdm xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi xfonts-base xfonts-cyrillic xfonts-scalable
xfree86-common xfwp xlibmesa-dri xlibmesa-gl xlibmesa-gl-dev xlibmesa-glu
xlibmesa-glu-dev xlibs xlibs-data xlibs-dev xlibs-static-dev xprt
xserver-common xserver-xfree86 xspecs xterm xutils xvfb
However, this did not help.
If it is obvious to someone reading this what has gone wrong with
my system then I'd very much appreciate their dropping me a line at
jdthood@yahoo.co.uk.
