When I exit and check the log I find: SESSION_MANAGER=local/tinlizzie.patmedia.net:/tmp/.ICE-unix/666 esd: Esound sound daemon already running or stale UNIX socket /tmp/.esd/socket This socket already exists indicating esd is already running. Exiting... ** (gnome-session:666): WARNING **: Esound failed to start. So I remove the socket and try to startx again. It fails with the same error, so it appears that something creates the socket and then something else also tries to create without first checking if it exists. Any thoughts/ideas on where to look? Thanks Jim
