Folks ~ My Thinkpad R32 (just installed 'testing') loads X just fine after booting, but if I exit and then later type "startx" it fails.
My XF86Config-4 is included below. I diff'd a log file from a successful start (calling it 'xdm log') with one generated right after shutting down X and running 'startx' ('startx log'). The differences are all in the 'drmOpenDevice' section. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and/or how to fix it?
