content of Xorg.0.log.old
Thank you from your reply. I think I should say that I’m a newbie to the
Linux and that my understanding of Linux is limited. However i did look
at the log files that you suggested and in /var/log/Xorg.0.log i found
nothing related to a error, but I did see a file in the /var/log
directory which did (Xorg.0.log.old - shown below) and says about a signal 11, is this a error code relating to the X binary? The thing is I found no man page about X however they is an error code 11 in the man page for xterm some thing about a ioctrl() function?????. Thing is I know nothing about C and the log file below is cryptic to me and suggests nothing meaningful about what the error is and what is causing it?
