[XFree86] x wont start
I was shutting down the comp because a thunder storm was a'coming.(Redhat 9.0 with newest version of XFree86, I think. Up until 6 weeks ago I performed all updates per RHN.) After I clicked the log out button, and before the GUI log in screen came up, it crashed. Ctrl-alt-delete to restart and got this: lots of input/output errors concerning /var/log/wtmp. - chgrp failed to get attributes - chmod failed to get attributes Also - /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: line 789: /var/log dmesg: input/output error - /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: line 807: /var/log/ksyms.0: input/output error Starting system logger: -syslogd: /var/log/messages: I/O error -syslogd: /var/log/secure: I/O error -syslogd: /var/log/maillog: I/O error -syslogd: /var/log/cron: I/O error -syslogd: /var/log/spooler: I/O error -syslogd: /var/log/boot.log: I/O error And later on -start xfs [Failed] -execup: I/O error Then get a message: I cannot start x server...

I cannot access my /var/log/XFree86.0.log file. I am unable to access the /var/log directory, period. I have tried to re-instal XFree86 and no change. But, it sounds like more than just and XFree86 problem. Any idea's are needed. Thank you, I've been without my comp for a week now.

What file system are you using? Have you run fsck on all your partitions?

Re: [XFree86] x wont start
try looking at your partitions and make sure all of them are mounted sounds like /var isnt getting mounted - Original Message - From: jmw34 [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, August 03, 2003 3:11 PM Subject: [XFree86] x wont start I was shutting down the comp because a thunder storm was a'coming.(Redhat 9.0 with newest version of XFree86, I think.
