There is something wrong with the Xwindows start of my centos5.4 ( 2.6.18-164.el5 X86_64). After several times to try to start the Xwindows, there is a warning message as following:
gdm[5917]: The display server has been shut down about 6 times in the last 90 seconds. It is likely that something bad is going on. Waiting for 2 minutes before trying again on display :0.
After upgrading Centos 5.4 cluster nodes to 5.5 all virtual services failed to start. All virtual services are marked as 'failed'. The reason: new /usr/share/cluster/vm.sh requires 'which', but this is not reflected in rgmanager-2.0.52-6.el5.centos.
Solution: run 'yum -y install which' on all nodes, and reboot cluster. Hope that will save somebody hours of downtime.
I have system problem about my Ubuntu 10.04 system. after I boot my Ubuntu, The login box is missing from gnome screen. I could not login my graphic system. I can use the command line by ctrl+alt+f1. I used sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start try to restart the xwindows the output isgdm already started I try to
stop gdm
start gdm
then the xwindows restarted, but still missing the login box I also try to use
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
reconfigure the server, but unfortunately there is no change after I restart the genome, I could still not see the login box I am confirm that there are additional spaces on my laptop. I can also enter the graphic system on safe mode by startx command.
Sometimes I use vnc server and start desktop. The memory use rises about 2gb during this. I need to be able to turn off the xwindows after I shutdown vnc without rebooting. Is there a way to do this?. And I don't need to know how to disable at boot thats not what I need to do.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Fedora 14. Yesterday, the update tool found 367 packages to update.
Before the update, Firefox worked fine.
After the update, firefox fails on startup with a series of python errors, apparently ultimately due to the error:
ImportError: /usr/lib64/python2.7/lib-dynload/selectmodule.so: undefined symbol: _Py_ZeroStruct
Any solutions to this short of reinstalling everything?
I just got a new graphics card. I got an Nvidia GeForce 8400 GS and its working great. Videos are a lot smoother and my overall experience is much better. I figured that I'd test my card to see if it can handle some gaming.

To increase this limit you can create more Physical Volumes from unpartitioned disk space and add them to this Volume Group.

I am newbie to centos. I am trying to install virtual server in my machine. I have installed the Xen virtual machine monitor which comes with CentOS through add/remove software. Here is the problem, I am unable to open connection with Xen hypervisor. Here is the error i am facing:
Unable to open a connection to the Xen hypervisor/daemon. code...
Let me start off with the usual: I'm a linux newbie but am doing pretty good so far with google by my side. I've come across a problem I cant seem to find an answer to:
I just got a CyberPower 685 AVR UPS. I Installed their power panel software and it works great in CentOS 5.4. When I reboot, the system hangs right after the "Red Hat Nash 5.6..... Starting" message. I've left it for 20 mins so far and it's still hanging. If I unplug the USB data/shutdown cable, within about 10 seconds it starts detecting hard drives and continues booting...
Ive even returned the UPS for another to see if it was bad, and it still is giving me problems.
I'm experiencing some rather severe problems after updating my Centos 5.4 system (Virtual Xen guest). What happens is that when the system boots it complains about missing .so files which prevents about 50% of the services installed from running.
I'm suspecting that it has something to do with selinux for two reasons: 1. The first services to go down complains about the security context of some files, and 2. selinux was kinda the reason I decided to update in the first place as it was disabled when it shouldn't be (enabled in system-config-securitylevel, disabled when running sestatus).
The whole boot-sequence ends with alot of "INIT: Id 'X' respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes"-messages (including all runlevels) before it goes stale, and I can do nothing.
The server in question had undergone very little tinkering from my part, pretty much none at all, the only services installed after installation was apache, mysql and webmin.
Details:
CentOS 5.4 is installed on both the host and guest.
The guest runs on an lvm-partition.
I have two other vm's(also CentOS) running just fine, altough I'm a bit weary of updating them .
Attached are some screenshots of the boot-process.
I hope some one here can share some insight on this problem. It's making me pretty nervous seeing that our whole network is run by CentOS-installations (not that I'm certain that CentOS is the culprit).
I am running matlab 2010b on centOS5.6.
Matlab opened without any error either in the computer terminal or in VNCSERVER.
While running bench (of matlab) the session or the vncserver are crashing.
In some cases the bench run for the first time without any problems, however it will crash the session or the vncserver on the 2-3 runs of the same code.
Any idea how to solve this issue?
