Hey,

Well, my debian box finally upgraded itself to X 4.1.0. Now when I run X
(via 'startx' or even just 'X') it says:

  (EE) Unable to locate/open config file
  (EE) Error from xf86HandleConfigFile()

  Fatal server error:
  no screens found

My old /etc/X11/XF86Config file is still there.

I can get X to run when I go:

  X -xf86config /etc/X11/XF86Config

But this has two problems:

(A) You can only do it as root. As a regular user, it refuses to accept a
full path to the config file. Also, copying the config file to the current
dir doesn't seem to work.

(B) I can't seem to get it into the startx commandline - "startx --
-xf86config /etc/X11/XF86Config" just sits there.

Any insight?
