- After rebuilding the kernel (4.2A), the Xserver still wont start. The line
- /etc/ttys is:
-
- :0 "/usr/bin/login -P /usr/bin/Xprompter -C /usr/bin/dxsession -e" none on secu
- re window="/usr/bin/Xws bc"
-
-
- We are getting the following messages in syslog:
-
- Jul 27 14:18:09 localhost: init: '/usr/bin/login -P /usr/bin/Xprompter -C /usr/bin/dxsession -e :0' failing, sleeping
-
-
- I rebuilt the kernel from scratch by booting with genvmunix and then typing:
-
- doconfig
-
- Without using the config file for the 3100.
-
- Any suggestions? It comes up in single user mode fine. Do were have to
- reinstall 4.2a? Is there any "setld -c" magic that can be done?
