DS> Hi! Last night I attempted to upgrade X from 4.0.1 to 4.0.2 in testing DS> (Version 4.0.2-1 I believe). Upgrade went fine. However, when restarting DS> X it went into an infinite loop and started hogging 99.8% CPU time. DS> Running strace showed that it got as far as reading and parsing DS> /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config. As soon as it set the nice level it restarted.
What happens if you run the X server directly? Try starting the XFree86 binary as root. Juliusz
