General :: Can't Get Mgetty To Start From Inittab / Resolve This?
Feb 8, 2010
I've updated a Fedora Core 3 server to Fedora 11. The old FC3 had an external modem attached for when we felt like dialing in for a ppp connection.
I've replicated login.config, mgetty.config and dialin.config from the old server and had to put a RS232-to-USB adapter on the modem.
I've test connected to the server and everything look fine.
I'm have a difficult time starting the Getty session from inittab.code...

I have fedora version 8 with mysql 5.0.45 installed. I have also installed drupal. Recently drupal gave me an error "error code 28". When i checked it out it seemed to be with the db. When i tried to created a db (for testing purposes) in root...i wasn't able to. so then i tried to restart mysql ...it stopped but unfortunately i have not been able to get mysql back up...i get a message saying "Timeout error occurred trying to start MySql Daemon".
The default setting of linux is run level 5 (Red Hat 9) I want to use my system in Runlevel 1. For that purpose i 1st check the permission which were
-rw-r--r--

2-The second thing i want to ask that before editing any important file which are /etc like "inittab" can i 1st make it's copy and keep it in my home directoty so,in case of any mistake I can get my original file?
I'm trying to produce a dial-tone from my modem with Mgetty. I found this online: I recently discovered a feature that's part of the command set of some voice modems that enables it to produce tones. The latter is of interest to us since the US dial-tone and others are a combination of two frequencies (440Hz and 350Hz in the US). Below is an ordered list of AT commands that initialize the modem, produce a dialtone for 2.5 seconds and answers the call. To check if the "AT+VTS" command is supported, or to get the parameter value ranges supported by it, use "AT+VTS=?"
im quite new to Unix stuff Im in need to add a script to be executed, in to /etc/inittab for that i need to get the path to my java installation. I have set the JAVA_HOME env variable already, my question is whether we can use JAVA_HOME in inittab? i mean, are those env variables are crated by the time inittab starts? if so, how can i add the entry
currently im having is like this pse:5:respawn:su - <username> -c "$JAVA_HOME/other-path/pp.sh run" is there any issue with the syntax?
During my several experiment on linux I accidentally put the default runlevel to the value 6..thus before starting its going to restart ..currently running mint 9. there is only one way that somehow i can edit that file from grub command line.
I was following a lesson with my UNIX Academy training and by mistake made a change to inittab. now it boots into black screen. How can I get into shell to fix inittab
I download the Fedora 12 and updated from Fedora 11. After installing successful and restart, I can't find Fedora 12 selection on the Grub. I try to write it on the grub.conf, but it's still can't start the Fedora 12. code...
I just installed JEE (not openjdk) and tryed to use both eclipse's galileo 32 and 64 bits (im under fedora 11 x64) but none is working i don't even get any message nor a single window, nothing. I'm really lost, what should i do?
My Firefox used to start instantly, or at least near instant, but since yesterday it took about 30 sec to launch. Opening subsequent windows is near instant, but once all windows are closed it would take a long time to open again.
When I open it up in a terminal, it has absolutely no error message, clean start up and shutdown.
I turned up the CPU clock speed from 1.2GHz to 2.0GHz and it doesn't seem to help. Other programs starts fine too, so I kind of ruled out performance issue.
Yesterday I also tinkered with compiz settings and also installed the cairo dock and some media codecs. But I can't pinpoint when does it happen exactly, I also struggle to draw any relationship if there is any. And if it matters Firefox is 3.6.10 and Ubuntu is 10.04.
An little annoying problem. When i start firefox it starts in fullscreen mode. So the tabs to close, minimise, and the 3'rd to maximise have disappeared. On windows you hit f10 i believe to get these back. How do you do in firefox?

hello everyone, im having a problem when my computer enters in the run level 4 as the default when i start slackware. The strange thing is that it not seems that is a X window problem, it looks like more like a configuration problem in some part of the kde script to initialize the log in, because if i manually start the X service it works fine, i dont know what is the source. Thank you in advance for the help.
I've installed and setup Hylafax in PCLOS 2009.2 I can get it to all work if from a console I su as root and type faxgetty ttyS0 the console is "locked" running faxgetty until I kill it. But while it is running everything works.
in my inittab there was a commented line at bottom #t0:23:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS0
I have uncommented it, saved it, restarted PC but faxgetty is not running. Is there some logging on inittab that may highlight the problem,
i cant access in /etc/inittab in the etc directory. because i don't have any other files like this. then how to i change the #Default run level mode to 4 in ubuntu 9.04.
I'm using slack13 and have changed entry in inittab from
Code: id:3:initdefault: to Code: id:4:initdefault:
to login straight to window system. However after that sound is gone. When I go to mixer it says that audio device cannot be used 'might be access problem'. So I've changed entry to what it was and starting X11 by 'startx' and then sound works again.
I have a new CentOS 5.6 installation. It was installed in text mode. I have changed the line id:3:initdefault: in /etc/inittab to id:5:inittab. Even after that change, gdm does not start automatically. gdm is installed, and can be started from the command line. I have put DISPLAYMANAGER="GNOME" and DESKTOP="GNOME" in /etc/sysconfig/desktop.
We have to run our applications under /etc/inittab, we can get coredump with os solaris. After we move our platform to LINUX, we just find our application reset itself for a couple of times without any coredump generate.
