I don't think this had anything to do with my problem but I loaded

working just fine. Now I can't get it to start even with the nv
driver.

Any idea where I should start?

Thanks,
There are two options. Look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Or what might be better, change to init level 3 and start X with startx
Then check the error messages.

I figured out what I did, actually what stupid thing I did. I was
playing around with all the options for selinux and reset a couple of
them. Selinux is what is keeping it from starting. If I disable
selinux X works perfectly. The problem is, I don't know how to put
the selinux options back. I can't start X with selinux enabled and
the program you use to set all of the options doesn't have any
options with selinux disabled. I'm in a conundrum.

Is there any way to reset to default all of the selinux options
without having selinux enabled?

Thanks,
