When X does....nothing.

[Duane Morin]

I'm back.  Long story short I just lost a week's worth of config work by 
trashing my hard drive.  D'oh.  Now I'm back up with a dedicated Fedora
build (instead of the previous semi update).

I have the latest NVidia drivers.  X boots...I get a flash of NVidia logo, 
then blank screen, with X cursor that I can move at will.  

But that's it.  It never goes anywhere.  If I do "X --verbose", the last 
thing I see is XINPUT: Adding extended input device "NVIDIA Kernel Inptu 
handler" (type other).

So what I'm wondering is, maybe it's not an NVidia thing at all, maybe X 
is just sitting there and waiting infinitely because it's supposed to be 
doing something next and can't.

If it's any more information, when I try to get into gnome I get the 
Fedora splash box, but then none of the little icons that usually 
represent the starting services. 

So what's supposed to be the first service that it starts?

Thanks!!!
