    Can not Start X. (details inside)

    Hi, my debian worked well before. THis morning the x window suddenly
    crashed out. Whenever I ran "startx", it got fatal error.

    The /var/log/XFree86.0.log information said

    (1)EE : " failed to load module "Glcore", (module does not exist, 0)"

    (2)EE: (II) LoadModule: "xtt"
    (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libxtt.a
    Duplicate symbol SPropRecValList_new
    in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libxtt.attmodule.o
    Also defined in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libfreetype.a

    Thus, I think "Glcore" and "xtt" in my xfree86 caused the problem. Then,
    I removed the "Glcore and xtt" from the load module section.

    Then, it still got errors. What should I do?

    Thanks a lot for any help!!

    Comment out Load "xtt" from your XF86Config, but
    please uncomment Glcore and try again.

    You cannot load both freetype and xtt modules.
    So please select one or the other.

    Now what errors do you get.....

    I ever tried to remove "xtt", but I still got the error as follows:
    EE : " failed to load module "Glcore", (module does not exist, 0)"

    Besides, if "xtt" is not compatible with "freetype", how did my system
    work before? This morning, it just suddenly crashed. I didn't touch
    the configure files. Is that virus? Or maybe any other reasons?

    Thanks again for any help!

    What driver is listed in the Section "Device" of XF86Config-4?

    Was this issue ever resolved?
    I'm having problems with dri after an upgrade to xorg 7.1
    I see in my log that GLcore is not loading.. maybe this could have something to do with it? I see a message in my Xorg.0.log: Failed to load module "GLcore"
    I'm running Debian Testing with a matrox 450. Before my upgrade direct rendering was working.

    glxinfo | grep rendering used to return "direct rendering: Yes" but today it returns "direct rendering: No"
