Hi all, I just sent this to the newbie list, then figured it borders onto expert territory.. so I decided to post it here as well I am setting up a dialup server for a company, and they want x... so I give them ice... (not enough resources for KDE or Gnome, so ICE it is..) unfortunatly, the problem below is hampering me somewhat... having lots of xfs problems, and its killed X... /etc/rc.d/init.x/xfs start gives the OK message. /etc/rc.d/init.x/xfs stop gives a failed message immediatly after the first one. /etc/rc.d/init.x/xfs status gives: xfs dead but subsys locked.. I hashed out my fontpath in the XF86Config to see if that would at least startx,,, but made no diference... so I added the paths manually.. ie FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib?X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled" did the same for all the other font dirs.. all the font dirs have the mkfontdir thingy done in them... and I am still not able to get it running.. anyone had this problem? anyone know what to do apart from reloading? details Mandrake 7.2 straight off the CD. (I think I messed it up by loading drakefont...) any suggestions would be much appreciated. regards Frank
