It's completely unecessary and I usually remove it because it causes problems with the nvidia driver module on kernel update etc. You can safely remove 'rhgb quiet' from the lines in grub.conf with no problem. Does X work normally once you get it? Are you using any special third party drivers for it like nvidia or ATI that might be causing issues? Check the logs (/var/log/messages and /var/log/Xorg.0.log) to see if anything is happening in there that you can track down. > Dick Rutledge > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos > -- Jim Perrin System Administrator - UIT Ft Gordon & US Army Signal Center
