Please provide the content of the related X log for us. You can find it under /var/log/Xorg.0.log, older versions are renamed with higher numbers, so after a restart with a working kernel, it should be /var/log/Xorg.1.log. Thanks!

OK,
I guess that it is that you are looking for,
Is just the log before (Xorg.0.log.old)
to the working kernel

Regards.

Yes that's because the file doesn't exist by default. The command will make the file for you.

Did it reboot and work ok?
