Veliko bolj verjetno se mi zdi, da init zazene xdm, xdm zazene X, ta pa 
crkne. Bojim se, da xdm nima detekcije prehitrega respawninga. 
Poskusi priti v drugo virtualno konzolo z ALT-Fn ali CTRL-ALT_Fn.
Ce to ne bo delovalo, zajemi sampo, pritisni CTRL-ALT-DEL da se zadeva
reboota, potem pa bootaj v single user mode-u  (na LILO promptu podas 
kot dodatni parameter besedico single). Od tam se bo masina postavila
v minimalnem stanju in bos lahko spremenil konfiguracije.
