Created attachment 48625 [details] Output from uname -a showing kernel version I am running the latest rawhide rpms from Fedora. When the system tries to start Xorg, Xorg then faults, the OS then retries 4 more times to start Xorg and quits. When I boot to run-level 3 and execute "startx", Xorg faults.

Can you install the xserver and driver debugging symbols and get a proper backtrace with gdb? http://wiki.x.org/wiki/Development/Documentation/ServerDebugging Please also attach your dmesg output. Might be a duplicate of bug 38792.

Alex, When I attempt to debug using gdb (per wiki), the server won't stay up long enough for gdb to connect. When I use your script method for a single computer, when I enter startx, I got a bunch of lines on the console containing only two dots on each line. When xinit finally gives up trying to connect, there is nothing in the gdb_log.$PID file. John

User error is the cause. I apparently mixed rpm repositories that shouldn't be mixed. That caused the mesa modules to be out of synch with the other parts of Xorg. When I straightened out the repository mismatch, Xorg once again works. Sorry for the noise.
