/etc/sysconfig/desktop was empty.
Or maybe the problem is that it existed. I have no such
file on my system and X is working fine.
Well, I have a pure Xfce VM and it starts fine with a non-existent desktop or empty desktop file.
I wonder if it would be different if I added a second desktop. But, I'm not that itching to try it. :-)
In either case, for a new clean install it's a mess.
I think the point is that you've fixed a problem by editing an empty file. Yet an empty file or
a missing file doesn't cause a problem in all cases.
A mystery that may (will?) remain unsolved. :-)
How to you start X ? from a terminal ? or the gdm ?
Mine is a normal Xfce install. So, I don't start from the command line. lightdm is the default
display manager.
That's why there's no problem. I've removed rhgb from the kernel command
line, so I start at the terminal. Then startx fails.
