    Hello,

    Occasionally on my laptop X will randomly fail to load whenever I boot
    Linux.It seems to be random, but it's almost always guarenteed to boot
    the next time. When it fails to load X, the computer just freezes and
    the only way I can turn off the computer is to hold down the power
    button. No key combinations work (Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, Ctrl+Alt+Delete).

    Does anyone know what is going on and/or how to fix it?

    My laptop is an IBM Thinkpad R32 and I'm running RedHat 9

    Thanks
    Daniel
