I had X windows working, but then I had to mess with it and now
it  won't start.

  I was editing the xinit file to change the window color and
sizes.  And I also edited the /etc/syslog.conf file to try and get 
the console error messages to stop messing up my screen.  

I made those two changes and tried to startx again but it wouldn't
start.  I saved the startx error messages to a file like this:

startx >& x.log   

Here is the error message log:

/usr/libexec/ld.so: warning: libc.so.12.20: minor version >= 25 expected, using it anyway
/dev/grf0: Couldn't get video mode information via ROM driver.
	This is not a fatal error.
	I gather there is no ROM driver support for this screen...
	I will treat this screen as StaticGray or TrueColor.
Screen 0 at 0x423a000, 640 by 480, 8 bpp, rowB 1024, fbbase 0.
rootVisual = 34 ((null))
rootDepth = 8
visuals->class = 0 (StaticGray)
visuals->bitsPerRGBValue = 8
visuals->ColormapEntries = 256
visuals->nplanes = 8
visuals->redMask = 0x0
visuals->greenMask = 0x0
visuals->blueMask = 0x0
visuals->offsetRed = 0x0
visuals->offsetGreen = 0x0
visuals->offsetBlue = 0x0

waiting for X server to shut down 
 
I'm having trouble figuring out what happened to the X windows.  Does
anybody have any ideas on how to fix this problem???


Thanks,

		  Guy
