** Description changed: I have ubuntu 8.04 installed on my system. It has been running perfectly till 2 days before. From yesterday, the gdm is not started. I have checked in the forums and confirm that: dbus is at S12 and hal is at S24 and gdm is S30 in /etc/rc.* The problem seems to be that hal is not started. I takes a long time (around 3-5 minutes, previously it took few seconds only) and there were no [OK] for the hal daemon. Even I tried to manually start hal, but it is not to be started. pidof hal returns no pids. - P.S: Also, my eth0 is not detected. I am not able to use internet to - post the logs from there. If information is provided regarding how to - enable network from text mode, it will be fine to give more details from - linux system. Currently I have to reboot the system to post the bugs. + -- + Now I have upgraded my dist by dist-upgrade, and now hal daemon is started correctly. But still, the gdmgreeter is not started. The gdmgreeter is restarted repeatedly without showing the login screen. + I could see the gdmgreeter pid changing in process status, implying that a new gdmgreeter is being started again repeatedly. I even tried restarting gdm manually, but with no use: + + If any other details are needed regarding this, I will provide it. Thanks, Rajesh.S
