Yes, it's running now at least. Not sure how it was then. I've had other
crashes since and I have gotten those simple yes/no prompts. So I'm not
sure why it didn't work the first time.

Got a crash just now, nothing in /var/crash but can see some problems in
/var/log/Xorg.0.old. It seems not every crash generates a file in
/var/crash.. so some are missed.
