Kevin,

As the problem only occurs after I exit X the log file isn't very helpful as
to what happens after. The last line is

(II) Mouse0: SetupAuto: protocol is SysMouse

However it seems to be cycling through various resolution modes before
starting, but no errors/warnings except for these lines

(II) VESA(0): Total Memory: 495 64KB banks (31680kB)
(II) VESA(0): Monitor0: Using hsync range of 30.00-62.00 kHz

(II) VESA(0): virtual address = 0x28964000,
physical address = 0xe0000000, size = 32440320
(==) VESA(0): Write-combining range (0x0,0x1000) was already clear

This last line is repeated about 200 times throughtout the file.

Glen,

It is an onboard graphics, some sort of VIA chipset. scanpci gives this

pci bus 0x0000 cardnum 0x00 function 0x00: vendor 0x1106 device 0x3116
 VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8375 [KM266/KL266] Host Bridge
pci bus 0x0000 cardnum 0x01 function 0x00: vendor 0x1106 device 0xb091
 VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8633 [Apollo Pro266 AGP]
pci bus 0x0000 cardnum 0x11 function 0x00: vendor 0x1106 device 0x3177
 VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8235 ISA Bridge
pci bus 0x0001 cardnum 0x00 function 0x00: vendor 0x5333 device 0x8d04
 S3 Inc. VT8375 [ProSavage8 KM266/KL266]
I use the default install and I don't know what driver to get or how to
build it.. but surely if you have the wrong drivers X will not start rather
than not stop?
Any suggestions?
Herman
