I was running rawhide updated to March 10. Went on vacation, yesterday did a full upgrade to fc5. Used yum to get updates released. Now X won't start. I think it's some sort of xfs problem.

with gnome, I get the fedora bubble logo, then a black screen, alt-f1 gets me the console, which shows:

waiting for X server to shut down FreeFontPath: FPE "unix/7100" refcount is 2, should be 1, fixing

syslog shows:

gnome_segv2[3263]: segfault at 0000000000xxxxxxxx .........

kde also won't start. The console shows:

xset: bad font path element (#76), .......

and syslog shows kded, ksplash, kcminit, and ksmserver segfaulting.

I've restarted xfs ( no errors in syslog ). I've rebooted.

Do I need to do some mkfontdir voodoo in each font directory? What did the upgrade change? I've seen no similar problems posted, so I assume it's a rawhide->fc5 issue.

puzzled.

OK, so no one else sees this.

Any suggestions as to how to diagnose this? Any way to get more verbose or clearer error messages?
