Dec 3, 2014 at 14:21 comment added Jason Starr At least for $n=3$, I remember something about this in the section of Griffiths-Harris: "the quadric line complex". For a general point $[\pi]$ of $X$, think of the Zariski tangent space of $\pi$ as a vector subspace of the space of global sections of the normal bundle $N_{\pi/\mathbb{P}^n}\cong \textit{Hom}(S,Q)$, where $S$ and $Q$ are the restrictions to $\pi$ of the universal subbundle, resp. quotient bundle. Your sections each vanish somewhere. You want to use this to prove that all sections have some kernel in $S$ or have image in a proper subbundle of $Q$ . . .

X-should be closed and irreducible, there should be no base points.
