X doesn't want to work

Hi

"warning: not loading the blacklisted module ipv6" do

Do not worry about that, it is because it is blacklisted

Try, at single user mode

sudo envy -t

and select your graphics driver to be installed

i.e. Nvidia etc

reboot, if still no X

run

sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.


"and i have to pull the plug to get it to shut down"

Just type

sudo halt
