I've reverted drm and agpgart, and also tried to convert the video module to use drm_minor(drmP.h), but still the same results, Where in the kernel might I find some useful info on why startx results with a blank screen? looking at Xorg.0.log I'm seeing a stop at drmGetBusid'' regards; -- Justin P.
