First check that your host name is listed in /etc/hosts, or is resolvable through a name server. Even though most people don't think about it, X is a network application, and can suffer DNS timout delays. If that is not the problem, then look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log for error messages. There may also be something in /var/log/messages. Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
