I am running Mandrake 7.1 and all was fine but now I have a boot problem: Mandrake boots to the text login and then (instead of proceeding to the graphic login) it stops for a few seconds and then seems to re-start the boot process to the same point. If I then log in (either as root or user) and type startx, it runds some lines and then stops with the following message: _FontTransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111 failed to set default font path 'unix/: -1' Fatal Server error: could not open default font 'fixed" x connector to : 0 : 0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown) If I do Ctrl Alt Del and when powered down, do a hard reboot, the same thing happens. The only thing I can think that I did when I was last in Mandrake was that I installed Staroffice from the 7.0 distribution (I am now running 7.1). There also was a thunderstorm yesterday while in Linux. What should I do? This is a Newbie to Linux. Thanks. Jeff Malka <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Registered Linux user 183185
