try this:
1. "export MAXSYMLINKS=30"
2. "file /usr/bin/X11/XFree86"
You should get at least something like this:
/usr/bin/X11/XFree86: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1
(SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
if not, you are probably in trouble. maybe reinstall X
3. create the soft link /etc/X11/X to your XFree86 executable (from previous
step) i.e. "ln -s /usr/bin/X11/XFree86 /etc/X11/X "
try to start X and see if you can manage anything. If X crashes, post the log.
btw, what filesystem are you using?
Manoj --> Thanks a lot Bhaskar but it works now I after running e2fsck some of the
services were not running after reboot I run the system in init3 then in init5 and
then removed the symbolic link of /etc/X11/X and copy X from some other system and
tried running startx and it worked though I have not restarted the system after that
Hope nothing wrong after reboot too.
Thanks a lot for all of you for helping me in right direction.
regards,
bhaskar
