RE: troubleshooting X
> This points to missing fonts, or incorrect font paths.
Good point. I don't know what font it's trying to use, but I have the default
install fonts (Vera, Luxi, etc) in /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/TTF. This is what
Xorg.0.log says:
(==) Automatically enabling devices
(==) No FontPath specified. Using compiled-in default.
(WW) `fonts.dir' not found (or not valid) in "/usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/".
Entry deleted from font path.
(Run 'mkfontdir' on "/usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/").
(WW) `fonts.dir' not found (or not valid) in "/usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/CID/".
Entry deleted from font path.
(Run 'mkfontdir' on "/usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/CID/").
(==) FontPath set to:
/usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,
/usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/,
/usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,
/usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,
/usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/
(==) RgbPath set to "/usr/X11R7/lib/X11/rgb"
The odd thing (to me) is that I thought FontPath would be controlled from
/etc/fonts/fonts.conf so I added another directory there, but it doesn't show
up in this log.
And I cannot find the xorg.conf file anywhere. I have a man page for it though.

I think the problem was that I couldn't create Xorg.0.log.old. The other
option would be to make the directory globally writable, I suppose, but IIRC
the error message mentioned SUID so I did that.
