Hi, this problem also happens to me, the only difference is that I have an ATI Radeon Xpress 1150 integrated video card. After the message appears I choose Not ("No") to try restarting the X in another display and after that everything works fine (GDM + XGL + Beryl). It always happens after every reboot. I've noticed that if I use Xorg in DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) instead of Xgl the problem doesn't show up. But then I could not use Beryl as I wish. ken, this is the output for ps -fC gdm -C X: -- Before funky window -- UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD root 3333 1 0 19:53 ? 00:00:00 /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm root 3508 3333 0 19:54 ? 00:00:00 /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm -- After funky window ("No" option) -- UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD root 3333 1 0 19:53 ? 00:00:00 /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm root 4264 3333 0 19:55 ? 00:00:00 /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm root 4266 4264 1 19:55 ? 00:00:01 /usr/bin/X :0 -audit 0 -br -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth vt8 What should we do to avoid this noisy delay?

Whenever I start my desktop (running OpenSuse 10.2 with XGL), it shows the nVidia logo startup screen, then goes to this funky blue/black gdm error message saying "There already appears to be an X server running on display :0." And then it asks if it should try restarting X on display :0 again. Whether I say Yes or No, the screen goes blank for a second and then the normal gdm login screen comes up... it's very odd b/c it works, but for some reason appears to be called too early or something....
I've already tried just reinstalling gdm and xorg server packages...
Can anyone help me identify where I should fix this?
What's your output from
ps -fC gdm -C X
