Hello community !
In my Workstations i use Fedora Core 6. Daily, i run yum upgrade -y
command for upgrade the OS. Yesterday i have a surprise when finished
the yum upgrade and reboot ............ X11 did not start. Tracing the
logs, i found that the XFS Font Server did not start. NVIDIA driver
was correct. Next, put my actions:
# startx
.....
.....
could not init font path element unix/:7000
FATAL: could not init default font fixed
# service xfs status
xfs is died, but pid file found
# service xfs restart
Starting xfs .... Ok
# service xfs status
xfs is died, but pid file found
# xfs
many of errors indicating: ignoring font path element (bad font path
desciptor)
ignoring /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc (bad font path desciptor)
.......
XFS fatal error: element #0 of font path is bad
I am confused, i reinstall the package xorg-x11-xfs and reinstall the
fonts xorg-x11-fonts-base* and nothing !!!
The problem init when the yum upgrade finish the last actualization.
What happend ?, i still continue with the problem, help !!!
Thanks
