Hello,
When I boot RH 9, Linux 2.4.20-8 the x server will not start, and the monitor cycles on and off. There is a "Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed'"
I can get to XF86Config but I've mucked around with the font paths here before with no luck. Does any anyone know how to fix this problem without reinstalling Linux?
Not enough information to decide on what has been damaged.
Is the font server (xfs) running? service xfs status
If not, enable it and start it before you try to start X again.
(chkconfig xfs on ; service xfs start)
Yes it is. ps -ef | grep xfs xfs 3661 1 0 10:12 ? 00:00:00 [xfs]
There is no /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 backup. It was working fine yesterday, and when i booted this morning x would not come up. I might have make some resolution changes yesterday before shutting down. " rpm -qa --last | tac | tail" shows nothing.
Thank you.
