I've upgraded from the (downgraded) 6.5.5 version to 6.6.4 and the system is back to normal.
Thank you.
It might be a good idea to delete the folder /mnt/wkg/releases/easy-6.6.3
But, 6.6.4 is not much different from 6.6.3, so I don't know why you had a problem with Xorg not starting.
If it happens again, choose to bootup to the commandline only, no X -- you can do this from the menu in the initrd.
Then, type "xwin" and see if X starts.
Reason for trying this, is I'm wondering if normal bootup requires more delay before trying to start X.
If X still doesn't start, you can try "xorgwizard"
The problem I had with 6.6.3 was regarding the graphic driver not being detected.
Now, with 6.6.4, I can boot, but there are some problems.
It's maybe a question of the speed of the booting process.
My disk sometimes is rated with '5', other times as '6', so it's fast.
When I login, the boot process gets suspended showing a black screen with the login root prompt.
I cannot do anything, not even Ctrl+C.
Have to press the power button for twenty seconds to hard reboot the system.
The second time to boot, a file check is done and the boot process stops with the same black screen with the login prompt.
This time, the system is already logged in and I can type the command you suggested above 'xwin'.
And the graphical interface boots fine.
