Since it is a bit big, I uploaded it to http://kamaraju.googlepages.com/Xorg.0.log_20070621.txt The error messages that appear on the command line are X Window System Version 7.1.1 Release Date: 12 May 2006 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.1.1 Build Operating System: UNKNOWN Current Operating System: Linux kusumanchi.mae.cornell.edu 2.6.18-4-686 #1 SMP Wed Feb 21 16:06:54 UTC 2007 i686 Build Date: 04 April 2007 Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version.
