I
found out what happened. :o)
I was
setting up samba to share a folder /usr/Cad12. And using Advanced file manager
to change the permissions and group ownership on the folder and its
contents.
when i
logged out the system crashed with the cant find font.
Well i
looked at all the files and folders in /usr/X11..................and bugger me
all ownership was Cad12, and all attribs were set to those i set for the Cad12
folder. FOR EVERYTHING , fonts, folders nothing was missed
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
now
what do i do...anybody know....
I did
go through all the folders and files changing them back to those i have on a
LM8.2 but it still won't go
( its
definitely Console from now on..... :o(
)

Subject: [Newbie]XFree86 crashed on LM9..what do i doI was setting up file permissions on a shared folder ( /usr/Cad ). Was using IceWM at the time. Everything was fine till i tried to log off.When i logged off, the monitor showed vertical rolling scan lines, clicked and did the same 4 times, after that i was given a command logon prompt.Since then if boot up, i get the same 4 clicks from the monitor and end with a command console.If i type startx i getthe 4 clicks with, after each click, a black screen with a few vertically scrolling horizontal lines. the the following errorFatal server errorcould not open default font 'fixed'XIO Fatal IO error 104 ( connection reset by pier )on boot up, when you get the [ok]'s on the right, the four clicks occur and then the screen goes back to the initiation settings, but after the four clicks it shows X Server [ok].Could anybody point me in the right direction to solve thisMany thanksKenny Baby.
