Jure, |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
I don't recall seeing any replies to my original post, so I figured it |
| 39 |
must have gotten lost. As for the Xorg log, I don't have one to post - |
| 40 |
if I had, I would have posted the pertinent portions rather than |
| 41 |
describe the problem. |
| 42 |
|

Regards, |

Chris |
