Got it - and thanks.  The interesting thing is the machine will start
correctly from rescue mode every time.

I'm not a developer, but it appears the machine is blowing past something
required to start X; sometimes I get a black screen with backlight and
sometimes slim just gives up and drops me at a login prompt.

The only other thing I can think of is this laptop boots from an SSD;
smartctl shows zero errors but on a normal boot X starts at about five
seconds uptime.  Something is causing X to not start, but that error is not
reproducible if you go through rescue mode first.  Rescue mode + Ctrl-D
works every time.

Strange.

And - thanks again  :)
