Thank you all. > It might not be relevant to your specific case, but I thought of mentioning it anyway. I had a similar problem (same error msgs) last week. In my case I found that my /hda2 partition was full. It so happens that if the disk is full, the xfs server is not be able to start and hence the x-server wont start. Yuo might want to check this. "unix/:7100" is by default present in the XF86config file. (atleast in all the computers in my lab).
