Ok while on lunch I tried brining up a brand new install and getting the
same blank screen. It goes through the first startup where you send your
hardware profile off and etc. but when I restart I get the screen. The Cap
lock light don't come on when pressed as well as the num lock. I did go
through and uncheck all services except for 3 or 4 and it goes one step
further and flashes the console logon screen that you see right before X
starts. But none the less still getting the blank screen. Im convinced it
must be a service that is starting up. Can anyone provide a list of the bare
minimum services I should have starting? That way I can see if that fixes
the problem and start adding services back one by one boot by boot too see
exactly which service is causing this and find a solution.
I would guess that it is either rhgb blanking out your screen after you
boot up or it is on a different screen (CTL-ALT-F7 or CTL-ALT-F8)
I seem to recall that Red Hat Graphical Boot is on one screen and then
the graphical login manager is on another screen. It might even be the
graphical login manager if running startx as a regular user works in
runlevel 3.
You might try adding enforcing=0 on the boot line after rhgb quiet to
see if SELinux is causing a problem with the graphical login manager. If
it comes up with that parameter at boot, you might try relabeling the
filesystem for SELinux. Running 'touch /.autorelabel' followed by
'reboot' as root would be the best solution.
