Hi, I'm moving this issue from the install issue, since it's not an install issue, I am using Fedora Core 1.
For some reason XFree boots up into nothingness now. All I remember was I pressed some keys (ALT, CTRL, F12, F11 or something) and it blinked out and my monitor jus keeps refreshing and nothing appears.. (goes into standby, turns on, goes into standby again, etc) Perhaps I increased the size of the graphics or something?
How to fix?
after futzing around, i got it to init 3 by editing the GRUB boot by adding 3 to the end of the kernel line and pressing b to boot...
reading my .x-session-errors file, i noticed a line: (nautilus:2475) WARNING *** destroyed file still being monitored ... do i have a corrupt file or something?
after more futzing around, i figured out that /dev/input/mouse was the cause of nautilus creating that error issue... now, i have a fedora box, but no mouse.. the issue could be because of my kvm switch... will test that next. I'm sure unsure why the mouse won't work.. maybe someone can give me a hand? :P
