I've somehow lost something which causes X not to start when I boot
(from HD or from Boot Floppy). After all the normal boot messages,
apparently X tries to start, but I get only the quick CL prompt, and
then X appears to try to start again, then the prompt, over and over.
Booting into linux 3 allows me to se in /var/log/XFree86.0.log the
following: Could not init font path element unix/:7100, removing from
list Fatal server error: Could not open default font 'fixed' I've
reloaded X from the install CD's, to no avail. Can anyone give me
any aid?
Sounds like the XFS daemon isn't running. What's the output of # /sbin/service xfs status as root
or $ ps -ax|grep xfs as an ordinary user
Can you start X as a user from runlevel 3?
Regards, Tim
