then, typed /var/log/Xorg.0.log and at the bottom it listed thefiles above as 'installed'. The same ones that were previously marked as 'Erased' So hopefully that is good. Had to shut down and do errand and back now but haven't tried anything yet.
You'll be back where you started after a reboot if you didn't change inittab to start at runlevel 3. That is, if you do the 'init 3' and X doesn't shut down cleanly you will have to remove the lock file again. But at least you'll know what is going on if 'startx' complains. You may or may not hang in the same way when starting via 'startx' so try to watch for any error messages that might flash by first.

So when I put the HD back in the PC it will boot up and I can waitand see if it allows me to log in> (HA!) If not, then Ctl+Alt+F2 and login as root and try startx and see what it does. I didn't change inittab ever since this whole senario started. Is default to start at runlevel 5? Bob
