I'm running 3.2 which is my third version (I think, maybe four).
X has always worked. Never failed once after finally getting
through XF86Config.

Today, it up and quit, refuses to start and nothing, repeat _nothing_
has been changed by this sole user/admin since yesterday. I mean, it
was running when I shut it down (orderly like) and we went to bed.

The error message starts by declaring itself "XFree86 Version
3.3.3.1 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, Revision 0, vendor release 6300)
Release Date: December 29 1998"

and ends with:

"Config Error: /etc/XF86Config:2823

Read the section entitled 'ANTI-SPAM CONFIGURATION CONTROL'..
Example section name expected

X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown)"

The "anti spam" section of /etc/XF86Config refers to files not
found on this machine.

Any clues?
