X is being wacky

[DoctorDan]

I've been using debain sarge for about a week and today i finally got internet up. I made a simple shell script to get my internet going when the pc turns on (ifconfig eth0 up.. blah blah). i placed it in init.d and symlinked the file from init.d into rc2.d. ever since then X has acted funny. gnome and x have worked since the 1st or 2nd day i had debian. now when i type "startx" and click "Log in anyway" (some error about connecting to debian.org comes up.. always has- dont think thats the problem) it either freezes competely (except for the cursor) or goes to the next part of starting gnome which is showing a screen that says "debian" and freezes there. i tried ctrl-alt-backspace and that brought me back to the CLI.

Any ideas? could my shell script have messed it up in some bizzare way?

Thanks,
Dan

[a thing]

Post the shell script.

haha its only

#!/bin/sh
ifconfig eth0 up
dhclient

the actual code shouldnt mess it up. it only makes me wonder because it happened the next reboot, and that was the only change i made.
