Hello,
I upgraded (some packages, not the kernel), and now I can't run X. :-( I
am running Debian stable, Linux version 2.6.8-2-k7. I have tried to
re-configure XF86Config-4 with the exact specs of my monitor, but this
didn't help. I can't find anything useful in the logs either. Nothing
marked error. The only clue is that if I try to do startx (instead of
starting it with gdm), I get this message in XFree86.0.log
AUDIT: Fri Dec 7 00:43:40 2007: 4399 X: client 5 rejected from local host
But, I can't find anything useful through googling.
I have shortened and inserted comments to the output of XFree86.0.log
It seems to be loading my driver:

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. I hate it when I don't have a
real error message to troubleshoot.
