uhm indeed.... the image shown me on the start of xdm is a pixelized
chaos, i thus disabled xdm....
in fact a strange mix of old images somehow still stored in the grafic
card buffer....

started with startx....

starts, reports no errors, but i only get an empy frame on the display
where normally the chooser would be...
typing blindly the login doesn't yield any result...

i can't start another one.. so somehow sawfish seems started....

general one ends with:
(EE) Generic Mouse: cannot open input device
(EE) PreInit failed for input device "Generic Mouse"
(II) UnloadModule: "mouse"
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Configured Mouse" (type:
							      MOUSE)
Could not init font path element unix/:7100, removing from list!

which seems quite normal....

xsession-errors gives:
SESSION_MANAGER=local/laptop:/tmp/.ICE-unix/1357
Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1
Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1
Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1

no idea what that means....

i started X with : startx 2>&1 |tee log
and that gives a lot more stuff, but still:
** (gnome-panel:8513): WARNING **: Unable to load panel stock icon 'go'

No panel_id set for panel object with ID 00000001
Unable to open desktop file
file:///home/bboett/.gnome2/panel2.d/default/launcher
s/hammer-0051ace0aa.desktop for panel launcher: Error reading file
'file:///home/
bboett/.gnome2/panel2.d/default/launchers/hammer-0051ace0aa.desktop':
File not found


last 2 things repeated several times....


i tryed exporting the display from a console and start there an xterm to
see what's happening....

the strange thing is, the xterm launches, gives no error messages
anyway, and on the display appears a rectangle with some old grafic
buffer displayed inside, no windowmanager borders, no shell inside....

its really strange...
