Corrupted XFree86 file

Strange, but suddenly when loading the OS I started facing problems as soon as I type "startx" . the var log file is very huge, but here goes one of its most important outputs;

At this moment I'm using the graphical enviroment but has loaded the system through "failsafe" in lilo menu, logged as the same user when I try to load the OS through "linux"in lilo menu I got the above error. What's going on here?

what does lsmod say? nvidia module loaded?

 

93,

-Sascha.rb

[aRTee]

modprobe nvidia

then try again.

 

If that helps, do as root:

echo "nvidia" >> /etc/modprobe.preload

or use any other method to get 'nvidia' into that file.

Loading the module "nvidia" into the Kernel worked great and in order to avoid typing all the time modprobe nvidia, I followed artee's step inserting nvidia into modprobe.preload file.

 

Thanks a lot guys.
