X crashed.


my fedoracore 2 worked well for 2 months.

i did not touch anything in system files.

but X crashed.

it seems that there is a font problem.

system goes to command prompt not to gnome.
in a command prompt font is not working properly,

X server error is 114.
when i type #startx --N~ --------------->i can not put colen instead of N~ coming.

so font is the problem.

so how to get back to X and how to rectify the font problem.

Can we assume you don't have any backups of the /etc directory?

I'm assuming he doesn't so the only thing I can tell you as of now is to try to do a yum update and let it update all you etc files and such. Give that a try and post back
