Suddenly X doesn't start, using either xdm or startx. The applicable line in the Xorg log seems to be: [ 19897.547] (EE) RADEON(0): Kernel modesetting setup failed and things slither downhill from there. I have googled this and found other occurances, but none that presented either a clear cause or a clear solution. (The complete log and my xorg.conf can be found at "http://users.rcn.com/roberthuff/".) This is probably my fault - somehow - but I just want to figure it out and get things back. Any ideas?
