Fatal server error:
If you're managing your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 with debconf, try:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:]# dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree
Dang--the above should have read xserver-xfree86 . . . are you _not_ managing XF86Config-4 with debconf?
and make sure that
[ ] pex5 [ ] xie [ ] glx
extensions don't have 'x' in their boxes (you _might_ want to do the same for speedo, too, while you're at it). Do a
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]$ startx
to see if that helped.
If your editing /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 yourself, just comment-out those lines (add a '#' to the beginning of the line), and
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:]~$ startx
Check-out /usr/share/doc/xfree86-common ;-)
Thanks, that fix worked. However, is this not a bug with the latest unstable packaging? I mean, my X config was working perfect, X packages updated and then my X is broken??? If this is a bug as I think, how do I properly report it?
I didn't have any problems with the 4.2.1-6 upgrade, but that doesn't mean that it should have worked for you--everyones' got a different configuration.
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting would be the place to start for bug reporting.
I'm a little confused about the matter, too--if you were managing XF86Config with debconf, it should take you through the steps when a new revision gets uploaded. It will also overwrite any changes you have made between the ####### and the #######--if there are any additions you need to make to XF86Config-4, add them either before, or after, the #######.
If you are editing it yourself, I don't think it should have overwritten the Config (unless there is also something awry with your debconf configuration (check with 'dpkg-reconfigure debconf'). I let debconf manage everything, and I have it always ask me the same old questions every time it does something just to be careful.
Have fun breaking something else ;-) -- ah
