Not that I've ever used X on a Mobilepro, but knowing abit about x in general,
I'd like to suggest that perhaps /var/log/XFree86.0.log might be a good place
to look for hints on what went wrong...

Penned by Steve Edwards on Thu, Mar 13, 2003 at 10:33:22AM +0000, we have:
| OK, I had a play again last night...
|
| I didn't get as far as re-compiling the kernel, I think this would take a while!
|
| I've moved the kernel into the DOS partition and cleared out a lot of things that
| I didn't think I'd need, so I've got a bit of room left now.
|
| After a re-istall I get no errors any more... Yay!
|
| But
|
| I still can't get X to start...
|
| If I run startx or X -broadcast (which is what I really want to run), it seems to
| execute the command OK, but then the shell prompt returns but I am unable to use
| the keyboard.
|
| I have to reset the machine to get it back.
|
| Am I missing something?
|
| Cheers
|
| Steve
