Hi Faisal,
Nice signature. --I had a similar problem, turns out i unwittingly turned off the xfs
service in a
mad attempt to tighten down my system. It looks like your X font server is not
running. If you try
(as root)
# service xfs status
this should tell you if it's runnning or not. If it's not running then chances are
it's not
started on bootup. To check this, try (as root)
# chkconfig --list xfs
this will tell you the different runlevels that xfs is started for.
If it's not running, get it running with
# service xfs start
And if it's not starting on bootup then make it happen with
# chkconfig xfs on
Read the manpage of chkconfig. There isn't one for service but you can get the gist of
it with
just
# service
as root.
I bet anything this solves your problem. If not, we can go from there.
Cheers,
John
