The sudden switch from my /etc/X11/xorg.conf to /xorg.conf is what

As many of you are aware I have been fighting an issue with gdm,
currently I am at the point where I could not login to gdm using my
normal user account, but I can login using the root account. I found
the same issue in the forums

About a month or so ago I lost the ability to use my GDM to log in. I
can log in using XDM which has to be called from the command line. When
my system is booting it loads gdm, but when it finishes booting instead
of starting X, it leaves me at the at the command line. I can then log
in as root

me to clean up unused files.

I have a day off work and it is too hot to play outside, so I got the
bright idea to clean up some minor warnings I have been getting. When I
am booting my computer, I get warnings to change from using
/etc/hostname to /etc/conf.d/hostname. Also the same with my
/etc/domainname. My first though
ys use the script, make and alias or create a symlink.

Thanks Daniel.
Typing xdm got me back into Gento
When I boot my computer into Gentoo and it tries to go to the log in
portion, X11 simply stops and drops me back to the console. While
attempting to load X11 the Nvidia logo flashes twice and then back to
the console. From looking at Xorg.0.log it appears that X finished
loading, which led me to

I started using Linux again a couple of months ago. After I installed
Mandrake /noticed that if my computer sat idle over night the memory
usage went up from 100 megs to 2-300 megs ( I have 1 gig of ram, so no
biggie). I switched to Gentoo and have noticed the samething. After
