X problems

[Tim Wilson <wilson@chemsun.chem.umn.edu>]

Hi everyone,

I found another post-power outage problem. This was working perfectly
before so I can only assume that the recent power outage had something to
do with it.

I can't run X on the server anymore. It dies immediately and reports a
problem with the mouse/tablet device. Here's the output (thanks for
Christopher Palmer and some others a few weeks ago who taught me to do
this):

[root@thales]# startx >& Xmessages

giving up.

Any ideas here? I can't run the Xsetup program either.

Later,
Tim
