Thanks for your response. I have checked that xfs is running OK but still cannot load even basic terminal window; I tried typing "xinit" and received a similar error message:
"Fatal server error could not open default font 'fixed'" ..... and later "XIO: fatal IO error 104 (connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0" after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining." I feel that an essential file was corrupted when the X system crashed. Any further thoughts?
