Hi!

I rebuilt whole x11/xorg (due to problem with google earth - it's been
missing earth picture)
but i didn't solve that problem.
Even more, now I'm trying to startx with empty ~/.xinitrc (twm should be run
as default WM), but twm won't start.
X server just shut down without errors.
With "exec twm" defined in ~/.xinitrc something happens, X seems to be
running, but screen is just black. Nothing happens.

How can I solve this?

Nik
