Thanks for your reply. I can see monitor jitter before X starts; there are lots of new and weird things in my init.d dir, but everything seems to run ok on every other boot. If I power-off to shutdown I have to recover the ext3 journal, orphaned nodes etc, and then it runs ok if I reboot or shutdown from the menu or the command line, next boot I get the jitters in the monitor and the x windows freeze; mouse works but kbd doesnt and requires hardware switch to recycle
If there are a lot of new and weird things in your init.d dir what are they. Has your system been hacked? Please give a short list of some of these.
below is list of init.d dis=mv to disable by me Also:
If you hit "cntl-alt-Backspace" together it will restart 'X'.
If that doesn't work try "cntl-alt-F1" will give you a terminal and hopefully a reading/printout of the issue/failure.
keyboard does not respond; mouse moves but clicking does not get any result
jitters start on gren screen before graphical window launch
