17 Funny, I thought about that thread when I saw it was taking one click
18 twice too. May want to check on that. If you look in the Xorg.0.log
19 file in /var/log it should tell you what it tries to see it as. It may
20 be seeing it as the wrong thing. This may help too:

27 See what that says and let us know if we can help, or it fixes it. I
28 may would believe dmesg myself. Make sure you and a editor gets along
29 though. GUI may not come up at all if it can't find a little rat
30 running around.
