FW: X + gdm at bootup madness
Nobody with an answer on this one?
> I am having some weird problem I do not understand. When I

> start X. It doesn't. It bails out, with errors in
> /var/log/XFree86.0.log (output below).
>
> When I login as root directly after this happens and type:
> /etc/init.d/gdm restart It loads up X right away without a glitch.

> I do not understand why it does not work, while it does 5
