    Hi,
    I'm using mandrake 10 and all of a sudden X has stopped working.

    On bootup I just get a text login prompt. If I login as root and type
    startx I get an error saying a library is missing and that it can't
    load the nvidia module and it can't load the vnc module.

    The funny thing is that I can still log in from my windows box using
    both SSH and vnc. I can get into KDE and everything seems to be
    working fine. I just can't get X working locally.

    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Regards
    Tom
