Hi,
I'm working on this now. I'm hoping someone is online and happens to know
a solution off the top of their head. I started an package update on my
fedora 7 box and let it go. The machine went to screen saver mode after a
while. When I went to check on it, it wasn't responsive expect for barely a
flicker of the screen. (i use a blank screen saver.)
I switched to the console (ctrl+alt+1) and rebooted. I'm thinking the
install might have still been running.. maybe.
The update included a kernel update.
When it booted, it stops when trying to load GDM and the message on screen
is:
INIT: Id "x" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
I do have the nvidia driver installed with the kernel module from livna. I
wonder if its having a problem. In the past though, I would get a screen
notifying me that xorg crashed while trying to start and offer to update
xorg.conf.
I tried yum update (had to remove ffmpeg to get the update to work) and
rebooted, but still the same result. It appears packages are updated. I
don't know what the problem is or how to fix it. Quite frankly, I'm tired of
messing around with stuff like this and just want to watch tv with my wife.
I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks
josh
