I have Debian 2.1. After installation the console works fine but X does not. 
When I startx, I will get a teal screen at a very low resolution, with the 
mouse pointing to the left. Then everything freezes. If I hit a key, I get a 
beep. I must go to a virtual terminal to shutdown.

I have run xf86config numerous times, each to no avail. During installation, I 
had gpm autodetect my mouse, a ps2.

All other distributions thus far (Mandrake 6.0 and Slackware 4.0) have worked 
flawlessly. Incidentally, so has Red Hat 5.2, which was based on the 2.0.35 
kernel.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Dave
