In trying to get Yum working, I stopped these services improperly named messagebus nfs and now my system either takes forever to boot or doesn't at all. I restarted them and saved but it didn't work on reboot. Seems the system really needs dbus services and 'messagebus' but I can't seem to save it in the gui. Failed to start xserver (graphical interface). After viewing xserver output and okay to diagnose got 'fatal server error'. And 'could not init font path element unix/:7100, removing from list'. I truly appreciate any help.
