Oh the wording is mine... it goes to runlevel 5 supposedly. But X etc cannot start. NO error messages.... just a hang. Leaving the box alone for an hour results in a box that cannot be ssh'd into and is totally frozen. No error messages. No log records it seems that X and Linux think they are ok .... just it's not working. X never fails.. nor does it start. At all times I get a message in ps-ax that kdm is trying to start. If I do a killall X or try to kill the start for kdm it can't kill it. I have to go back to runlevel 3 via telinit. StartX from runlevel 3 at that point hangs in a simular manor. I've restarted xfs and it restarts and runs without error. Once I leave runlevel 5 the only way to return to a functional runlevel 5 environment is via a reboot.
