hi, this may be help, good luck! ---- cut from: Debian:/usr/share/doc/xfree86-common/FAQ ---- How do I get the X server to find the "fixed" font? If the X server refuses to start, complaining that it cannot find the "fixed" font, then one (or more) of the following is likely true: * You don't have the xfonts-base package installed. Install it. * You don't have a valid FontPath in your /etc/X11/XF86Config or /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file. At the very minimum, your FontPath should look something like this: FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/lib/X11/ fonts/75dpi/" You will likely have several more directories listed. The "fixed" font is in the misc directory. * The fonts.dir or fonts.alias files in the /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc directory have been corrupted or are not present. This could be caused by a broken package which unpacks one or both of these files onto the system. A reinstallation of xfonts-base should fix the problem. * You're using a font server (either local or remote), and it is not running or not reachable. Note that Debian ships the xfs package with TCP listening turned off by default for security reasons. If you are running xfs locally and do not need to serve fonts to remote machines, you don't need to turn TCP listening back on. Instead, try a FontPath entry like this: FontPath "unix/:7100" If you are using a remote font server, determine whether or not it is running, is listening on the TCP port, and/or engage in some network troubleshooting. ---- cut end ---- On 9/3/05, Nimesh Wadri <nwadri1@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi !! > > I am a newbee for linux. > > I have Red Hat 9 2.4.20-8 , Xfree86 Version 4.3.0, installed on intel 815 > chipset. my machine rebooted while starting since then the display dosent > appear. > > I am attaching the log file kindly help > > Regards > > > > Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com > _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
