I am running a securelevel (3 in my case) but have been doing it since months... What's really odd, is that after I dual booted Ubuntu just now, and restarting and opting for freebsd I first got this rare message about the kernel that couldn't be booted. Then I did a ctrl-alt-del and restarted and opted for freebsd again and voila.....I could get back into X!!! I don't know what was happening, I am suspecting maybe bad hardware and started backing things up.
Thanks in advanced though, I am working with GDM right now and I just don't know what happened!! ----- Original Message ---- From: Christian Walther <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Dino Vliet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sent: Sunday, February 18, 2007 1:56:48 PM Subject: Re: X won start anymore On 18/02/07, Dino Vliet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: [...] > (WW) xf86EnableIO: Failed to open /dev/io for extended I/O(EE) No devices > detected. > > Fatal server error: > no screens found [...] You're sure you didn't set securelevel to something > 0? X can't work without having access to /dev/io, so having a kernel in secure mode and X running isn't possible. ____________________________________________________________________________________ No need to miss a message.
