Boot up Problem. Plz Help.

2002-12-12 Thread rahul b jain cs student
HI,

This problem is related to X-windows boot up. After every couple of days,
my machines fails to boot up in the x-windows mode. When I delete some of
the log files, it boots up properly in the X-windows mode.

Is there a permanent solution to this problem ?

Thanks,
Rahul.

Looks like a disk space problem.

Cheers,

1. Make /var bigger.

2.Change how long logs are kept (man logrotate).

3. Make a script that deletes logs (be very careful which ones) and call
it from rc.local. Just make sure it works properly first.

1 is best, 2 next, 3 mostly for emergency situations.
