Nautilus does not find a file called (/var/log/Xorg.0.log). Do you know what directory (is that the linux word?) this file is stored in? Perhaps I can find it manually. I asume it opens with a text editor- is that correct?<br>
<br>I thought (since I am a fairly basic computer person) you meant for me to execute that file and give the read out. <br><br>Thanks<br><br>G<br><br>PS I'll stick with gmail until this problem is resolved. Switching at this point might further compliacate matters.<br>

</div>Sure, gmail. I should have noticed from the address. Something is wrong<br>
with gmail in this regard, but I don't use it and keep forgetting.<br>

</div>Which command? I just meant that you should attach this file<br>
(/var/log/Xorg.0.log) to a reply. Unless your system is set up very<br>
weirdly, you should certainly be able to read, and thus attach, it.<br>

</div>I'd prefer the log file. It contains a great deal of information about<br>
the card and what goes on during startup of Xorg, and this would be very<br>
helpful. Currently I am not sure what is going on and it would just be<br>
wasting your time to try and help without knowing the details.<br>
