I don't know how the /tmp dir is related to this problem, but the error message comes when the graphics engine is locked up. You will need to power down to get it back... Perhaps boot into run level 3 instead and then "startx", you will at least have a usable console while you fix the problem.
On the /tmp issue. Did you recreate /tmp correctly? You need to do a "chmod o+t /tmp" when making tmp... don't know how it could be connected to the lockup but worth a try if you didn't do it already. -Matt -----Original Message----- From: Leela Krishna Poola [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, June 03, 2002 11:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Xpert]X server not able to start. Hi, I have a problem with xserver. Its not able to start as I start the system. The monitor flashes at intervals with the folowwing message on the screen: [drm:i810_flush_queue] *ERROR* lockup Once I deleted the /tmp directory and then again created it. This problem started only after that. Can some one shud some light on this. regards, leela Krishna _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
