23 Looking at that log, my first question is... does your thinkpad run
24 1680x1050? The RECORD disable shouldn't make a difference on X
25 actually loading, based on the message it gives, and the (EE) lines
26 about dri/dri2 shouldn't be an issue with nvidia drivers if I recall
27 (my box with an nvidia card's down at the moment, and it's on a
28 slightly older version of X and nvidia drivers, old hardware as it
29 is). Also, is this with or without hal & dbus? newest few versions of
30 X were finicky with me about running -hal, but work fine with +hal (as
31 long as hal is running as well).
