could not boot

	Hello list!

Just thought I'd drop this line.  Tried rebooting to get a new gnome
screen and found that I could not log in to any account.  Dug around a
little bit and found that there was an unmatched if-fi pair in
'/etc/X11/xinit/Xclients' so that:

# check to see if the user has a preferred desktop
PREFERRED=
if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/desktop ]; then
    . /etc/sysconfig/desktop
    if [ "$DESKTOP" = "GNOME" ]; then
        PREFERRED=gnome-session
    elif [ "$DESKTOP" = "KDE" ]; then
        PREFERRED=startkde
----->fi # added this to make logging on possible
fi


HTH
