Re: Cannot get back into GNOME

[DBW <dbw ozreef org>]

I think I have worked out what the problem is.  No idea on the solution 
though.  Ends up that it isn't anything to do with gnome ....

When I drop back out of Twm to the text prompt there is this error printed out:

"(WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:1) found"

Finally found something somewhere with a similar problem.

That particular exchange didn't come up with any solution that I can find .....
