Re: X broken?




Hello;

Just a follow up to the X problem.  Turns out that the problem was that I
had recompiled my kernel (2.0.35) using egcs.  Once I did a recompile
using, gcc X worked fine again.  Thanks to all of those with suggestions.
I am posting this in hopes that it might help someone who has a similar
problem now/in the future.
