I type in /etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs start, and it says, "Starting X
Font
Server, OK", but when I type "startx", I still get the same error (as
root):
/**********
{all sorts of graphics card startup stuff}
(--) Mach64: Font cache: 0 fonts
_FontTransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
failed to set default font path 'unix/:-1'
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
giving up
xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno3): Server error
/**********
When I type "startx" as a regular user, I get the message:
"authentication failed
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
giving up
xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): Unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error
On boot, it says that the X Font Server starts up okay. Do you
have
any diagnosis?
