Re: AS255, X not running
running dpkg -reconfigure xserver-xfree86 leads to unknown option -e.
still can not transfer my log file here but the last message is :
Addscreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0
I also got this (EE) Failed to load "pex5" (module does not exist, 0) but
dont know exactly how to deselect it (is it in XFConfig-4 ?)
Thanks for trying to help
