I think you should probably try starting an xserver from the consol as root and then see if there is a .xsession-errors
Log in as root on the virtual console (ctrl-alt-f1) and then type:
xinit -- :1
This will start an additional X display, or fail with some error.
For errors I meant /var/log/Xorg....
Thank you for the information; interesting and helpful. From the Xorg... file, I found a couple of missing system files and installed them. Things are better, but still not booting up right. Here are some lines from the Xorg file, with grep searches for AIGLX and VT. I have a second computer with the same hardware (except different disks), still running v13.2. Comparing the Xorg files on the two systems shows that the lines near time 50... are not listed on the 'good' computer. [ 9.792] (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer [ 9.793] (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_ARB_create_context [ 9.793] (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_ARB_create_context_profile [ 9.793] (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_EXT_create_context_es{,2}_profile [ 9.793] (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_INTEL_swap_event [ 9.793] (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_SGI_swap_control and GLX_MESA_swap_control [ 9.793] (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_EXT_framebuffer_sRGB [ 9.793] (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_ARB_fbconfig_float [ 9.793] (II) AIGLX: enabled GLX_EXT_fbconfig_packed_float [ 9.793] (II) AIGLX: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap backed by buffer objects [ 9.796] (II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized nouveau [ 50.112] (II) AIGLX: Suspending AIGLX clients for VT switch [ 9.537] (++) using VT number 7 [ 9.800] (II) NOUVEAU(0): NVEnterVT is called. [ 50.112] (II) AIGLX: Suspending AIGLX clients for VT switch [ 50.112] (II) NOUVEAU(0): NVLeaveVT is called. I have not seen other problems. I am tempted to update the system on the second computer, but fearful that I might sort-of lose it. I am thinking of reinstalling v42.2 on the 'bad' computer. I may have made some errors when adding additional rpms. I have very successfully installed v42.2 on 3 other computers with similar architectures, except that the graphix cards use radeon drivers.
