The file "startx.trace" will have a list of all of the commands run, and all of their output (including errors).
/var/log/X* might be interesting as well.
OK, this last bit sounds promising although this works as expected for root -- starts up gnome flawlessly. My previous setup imported settings to use a display manager, etc. So, I need to check on this.
Right now, one of my main concerns is that my old /home partition/direction is supposedly associated WITH current users I setup and yet...NOT! The system does not recognize this association even though it asked me about setting it up when I created my first real user on installation. I had to go in and reset uids but that's no biggie and this process has worked fine before. I can't help but think this is related to the startx issue.
I missed parts of this thread: are any of them mounted NFS? From root, su - user, and then do ls -laF, and check the ownership and group, *including* of ./ (the current directory).
I mention NFS because of issues we've been having here, but we're connected to AD, and I need to fix /etc/idmapd.conf to have our domain.
