And remember my problem: # startx could not init .... unix/:7000 .... FATAL: Not found font 'fixed' This error is because XFS is not listening. The problem target is XFS. Now, XFS say this: # service xfs start Starting XFS .... OK # service xfs status xfs was died, but pid file found # xfs Many of errors indicating: Ignoring font path element tararara (path of the fonts) (bad descriptor font path) FATAL: Element #0 bad font path ....
