Because of this, X will not start. Your graphic mode problem is therefore related to the problems with xfs. Solve xfs, and your graphic mode problem should also be solved. > Actually, the xfs server starts fine during booting, but when I try to > restart with "/etc.rc.d/init.d/xfs restart" command or "service xfs > restart", it says it fails and it seems impossible to kill. > > I also tried by deleting the xfs.pid from /var/run directory and > rebooting and it has not worked too. Well, you could run X without xfs (I do). If I'm not mistaken, you should remove/comment out a line involving "unix/:7100" from your configuration file. If that doesn't help you might want to ask about your xfs problem on the xfree86 mailinglist. As I don't use xfs myself I don't know where to find the logs of xfs either, so I cannot help you find out why xfs will not run for you.
