Thumbs down FC 9 GUI problem


I have installed fedora 9, 32 bit operation system in IBM server machine. i have installed this Operating System (Fedora 9) through text mode.

After installed this OS.I have rebooted the system after reboot the system it's going to command mode only i changed the default runlevel from 3 to 5 in /etc/inittab.After made these changes once again i have rebooted that system then occurred the same problem.

I have login as a root and i have tried to configure the display with the help of this command system-config-display after press enter it's going to standby mode.

What could be the problem is this model(Which i have given below) support Fedora9 or not

System : IBM Server
Model : System x 3650


Thanks & Regards,
Ambavaram

What happens if you invoke startx from the command? What errors are you seeing your logs? If this is a server, why do you specifically need X running which only takes away resources that could be used elsewhere? Usually servers are headless, so running X is just usually not the norm in most cases.
