Ahh .. root partition full. How did it get full? Were you in the middle of installing some RPMs, perhaps? Upgrading your system? It looks to me like X can't start the font server, so gives up. That could well be due to an incomplete upgrade (due to running out of disk during an rpm install) or maybe you have /tmp on your root partition and the font server needs some working space. Try: df -k to see what partitions you have mounted, and how much space they have. If any of the important partitions are full, I would recommend deleting or compressing some unimportant stuff to see if that helps. Well, it's worth trying anyway... I really can't see what harddrake would have to do with any of this, though. Are you absolutely certain that it worked immediately before you disabled harddrake, and stopped working immediately afterward? What command did you use to "disable" harddrake? Regards, Simon
