X server wont run after upgrade

Hello,

I've just upgraded the system "SYU" and when reboot, it puts me on the command line. No message no nothing.
It worked beautifully before.
Any idea what should i do now?

I run kde 4.3 64 bit.
Graphic driver: radeonhd

In the Xorg.0.log file I found this message:

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11.  Server aborting

Thanks,
jmak

Re: X server wont run after upgrade

It would really surprise me if your Xorg server is so silent as to only return that one line.

Surely there must be more?

Show us the output of

grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Re: X server wont run after upgrade

Hello Jmak!

Yeah, and which kernel/driver/X version do you use ? Didn't your xorg.conf change ?

Re: X server wont run after upgrade

Possibly the kernel was update but not the graphic driver afterwards?
