Hello Everyone,

I've finally been able to setup a RHEL 4 system and I have some issues with the
X windows. The gui (runlevel 5) does not start and I do not know what CLI
utilities there are to help troubleshoot. I know that with the Xfree86, one
could use the redhat-config-xfree86, but I do not know the new tool (if there is
one). I recall that xfree86 is no longer being used. Any help would be
appreciated.
exactly what symptoms are you seeing?
is the system attempting to boot into runlevel 5 or are you trying manually with startx.

try this:
in a terminal, as root:
# system-config-display --reconfig --noui
to regenerate a basic /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
then test with startx and tell us what errors you see. if any.

Thanks,

James
