X X11 xwindow crashed and won't come back up
FC4
Diamond Viper 32M video card (old) Sharp LCD everything was going fine (excluding the random mozilla crashes)... One day last week I logged out of Xwindows and crash, nothing. I had not changed anything. I had no idea what to do since I had not changed anything on the system, so I changed root's password and did a reboot. When it came back up linux booted, the screen went blank and the X looking mouse pointer showed up, the screen went blue and the hourglass appeared, then back to black for a while...repeat 6 times ro so untill a blue text box full screened appeared and said that it had tried to initialize 6 times and would wait 20 seconds before attempting another restart. From there I switched to tty2 and just logged in normally. So I went in to /etc/intittab and commented out the run level 5 x command so it wouldn't even try that mess anymore. so I go and run up2date, got the system current. ran startx from a telnet session from a networked comp, and this is what I get: the server screen goes black, I get the X mouse pointer, blue screen with centered FEDORA splash (where the icons load) and all this has spewed to my (telnet) window...

Pango will not work correctly. This probably means there was an error in the creation of: '/etc/pango/pango.modules' You may be able to recreate this file by running pango-querymodules. (gnome-session:8321): Pango-CRITICAL **: _pango_engine_shape_shape: assertion `PANGO_IS_FONT (font)' failed ..WTF?! Ok so I went and ran pango-querymodules-32 and piped the output to the file pango.modules and it still does this over and over and over untill it gives up.... any ideas? thanks! Ryan |
