Description Marius Strâcnă 2008-02-26 13:00:01 UTC
Description of problem:

After the last upgrade, startx script fails and the GUI is not launched (without
any error message).

However, doing a system-config-display --reconfig *does* start the graphical
version of the utility.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.3.0.0-42.fc8

How reproducible:
Always.


  
Actual results:
The startx script doesn't start the GUI.

Expected results:
GUI must be started correctly.

Additional info:
Please see this bug's link for the smolt hadware profile.

System is set in Romanian. At the end of startx output, we see a warning.

Here's the entire output:

Thanks for the bug report.  We have reviewed the information you have provided
above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful
in our diagnosis of this issue.

Please attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) and X server log
file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file
attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link below.

Could you please also try to run without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf whatsoever and
let X11 autodetect your display and video card? Attach to this bug
/var/log/Xorg.0.log from this attempt as well, please.

We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information.

Thanks in advance.
