I have a few questions: 1) Are you still experiencing this problem with XFree86 4.3.0-7, currently in Debian unstable (sid) and testing (sarge)? 2) If the answer to 1) is "yes", does X work if you change the "Driver" in the "Device" section of XF86Config-4 to "ati", instead of "vesa"? 3) If the answer to 1) is "yes", try commenting out all the "InputDevice" sections in your XF86Config-4 that use the "mouse" driver, then start the XFree86 X server with the "-allowMouseOpenFail" option; e.g. "startx -- -allowMouseOpenFail". Does the X server stay up for more than a few seconds then? -- G.
