When I turn on my computer I can not open up the gui interface for redhat linux 7 due to an X server error. The screen blinks on and off a couple of times and then drops into a diagnostic mode which does not take care of the problem. The contents of the log /var/log/XFree86.0.log are as follows:
Collect: Cannot write ./dfh3IOlLR008742 (sm_io_flush||sm_io_error, uid=51, gid=51): Input/output error Queueup: cannot create queue temp file ./tfhB3IOlLR008742, uid=51 permission denied
I have a lot of important files on this machine that I cannot touch in single user mode because they are windows files held within vmware. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
