Hi Morgan, I think that this fix has worked for a few people:
As for X crashing when you open the terminal, I recommend the following: To do this, you'll need to boot into an xterm session, so when the login screen comes up, click on the Sessions icon, and select Terminal session or something similar. This will bring you into an xterm session - not an xfce4-terminal. It should work. :) * use the "cd" command to navigate to your /etc/X11 folder and make a backup copy of your xorg.conf file. You can do this by entering: cd /etc/X11 sudo cp xorg.conf xorg.conf_backup * edit your xorg.conf file, changing the default depth from 24 to 16. You can do this by entering: sudo nano xorg.conf . . . then scroll down to the Screen section, and find the DefaultDepth option. Change that number to 16. *press control-o (letter "O") to save the file, then press control-x to exit the nano text editor. Then exit from the xterm session, and it should bring you back to the login window. Select an Xfce session from the session button, and proceed to login as usual. I hope this helps! Sorry it is kind of a non-pretty way to do things, but it's hard to tell you to enter these changes into a regular terminal when the regular terminal crashes your X session! I think that this should work, though . . . Let us know if it doesn't work. Thanks!
