This looks kind of like bug #367275, which I’ve been struggling with. Steve, when you had this problem, do you remember if Xorg.0.log.old had the mimetype "application/x-trash"? (That would have made it difficult to open in the text editor or the log viewer, as nothing will recognize it as a regular text file, even if it has regular text data and will open fine if you tell the text editor specifically to do so.) That’s been the symptom for me.

I’ll try some alternate settings, now....
