OpenSUSE Install :: KDE Doesn't Start On Boot?

May 5, 2010

I have just done a fresh network install on SUSE on a new HP Proliant ML115 server. The install seemed to go OK, but on rebooting after the install I get a shell logon/prompt -- no GUI. Have tried reinstalling with the same result. If I try to run startkde I get a message that says "$DISPLAY is not set or cannot connect to the X server."

How do I resolve this?

OpenSUSE Install :: Desktop Doesn't Start After Boot?

Nov 13, 2010

My laptop is a Core 2 Centrino and i installed OpenSUSE 11.3 i586 on it recently. I tried to install the graphic card's driver using this instruction:ATI Installer HOWTO for openSUSE usersafter installation was done, i restarted the system but during the boot, where the openSUSE appears, the screen went black and nothing happened afterward untill i turned of the system manually.i tried again and same result, so i logged in with failsafe and un-installed those packages, now the system boots successfully, but it boots to the terminal instead of the desktop. i might have removed the X server package or something important.now that i have access to terminal and i can log in, i thought i can do something with it and solve it this way rather than re-installing the whole OS.he graphic card is :ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570, if anyone knows how to the driver for this card, please let me know how to.

OpenSUSE Install :: KDE & Startx Login Failure?

Aug 16, 2011

After upgrading several packages (can't remember which now) I can't login with the graphical login. It accepts the password, starts to load, but then dies and dumps me back at the login prompt again.Attempting to login from the prompt, sometimes works (there is specific condition), and when it does, I then attempt to "startx". OK, it complains the display is already in use, so I then "startx -- :1". Everything starts to load, but then fails again like the graphical login.

checking /var/log/Xorg.1.log I see no errors [EE].checking /home/***/.xsession-errors I see the following.xauth: file /home/***/.serverauth.15914 does not existI have also tried as another forum suggested and rename the .kde4 and the .skel directories to something else. Login via graphical and prompt still both fail.I have also tried logging in with another window manger. That also fails.However, I have also tried creating a new user and logging in. That works. It is from this user account that I write the postI have attempted copying over all of the application settings from the corrupted user account, but some things are missing and there are various personal project directories and permissions that are causing issues. Therefore I would like to repair the corrupted account. Where do I begin to fix the corrupted account?OS: Linux 3.0.1-40-desktop i686System: openSUSE 11.4 (i586)KDE: 4.6.5 (4.6.5) "release 4"Video: nouveau

Ubuntu :: 11.04 Doesn't Complete Boot Up....makes Me Use Startx

Jul 3, 2011

I must have deleted a file or done something wrong because now when I start ubuntu11.04, my startup stalls at the blackscreen where it lists the output of current operations. Mine seems to stall at checking pulseaduio or stall at checking cron. I am not totally certain of the phrases but anyway, my only way to log in is to ctrl+alt F1 and sign in that way followed by startx. I copied some exact info down and here is where my computer usually stalls:

Screen says, Starting CUPS printing spooler/server [ok]
Checking battery state... [ok]
Stopping System V runlevel compatibility [ok]

This is the usual stopping stop for my computer.

Software :: Kdm Works But Startx Doesn't (black Screen Stop)

Jan 10, 2010

I'm running debian (AMD64 dist), and I recently upgraded via aptitude to KDE 4.3.4.After the upgrade I found that I could no longer start X (using startx from my user account).I am, however, able to launch kdm from a root command line and log in as a user to X this way (graphically).I want to run startx as a user and I cannot figure out where the hangup is. I've looked in my Xorg.0.log files comparing .old to current and nothing stands out. After I launch 'startx' the screen goes black and the computer waits. I can hit ctrl-alt-f2 and bring back the text-mode terminal screen; it's at a point where it looks like X is working. From there, I can control-c it and get back to the command prompt.

I'm thinking this is a software configuration thing but I don't know enough about how all the systems tie together to figure out where the problem is.

General :: Startx Script Commandline To Start VirtualBox VM On Separate X Server

Aug 28, 2011

I am trying to start a VirtualBox VM on a separate X screen (in fullscreen) so I can switch between Linux and Windows XP by doing Ctrl + Alt + F<.

I am basically trying to do something like this:

startx "VBoxManage startvm XP" -- :4
startx "VBoxManage startvm "XP"" -- :4 (is this correct for quotes within quotes??)

I get a "bad command line option "VBoxManage" back from the startx script so obviously I am not understanding the rules for how to write "shell magic".

How can I do this correctly, or perhaps there is a better way of achieving a VirtualBox VM on a separate X screen?

Debian :: Kde Doesn't Start After Apt-get Install / Trace Down This?

Aug 31, 2010

In a kde terminal, apt-get was installing gem when it asked me to restart the kmn daemon (i'm not sure about the "kmn"...) and i hit "yes" when the gui dissapeared and fell back to tty1. I waited a while and then restarted the system but kde didn't start automatically (it used to be so). I tried "startx" and "startkde" but they are unknown.
I don't know linux this deep so i don't know what to check or how to trace down this problem.

OpenSUSE Network :: Aapache Doesn't Start On 11.2 / How To Diagnose It

Sep 19, 2010

I just upgraded my home machine to 11.2 but apache is not starting automatically. I tried deleting apache2 in YaST and reinstalling it but it still doesn't start. It doesn't appear as an icon in YaST under network services either. There's a log directory for it but no logs. There's an /etc/apache2 directory.

I haven't tried starting it manually because (a) I don't want to destroy any evidence and (b) I want it to work automatically in future.

Is there something else I should be doing? Or how to diagnose?

I just downloaded the F11 x64 DVD iso, and I when I try to install it, after the media check screen, Anaconda starts it load, but it says "X failed to start, falling back to text mode" (or something like that).
The install goes through (in text mode), and all that gets installed is the basic environment.

My specs:

- 4gb DDR2 800 memory
- 1tb Samsung SATA / 100gb Western Digital SATA
- 2x XFX Geforce 9600gt 1gb
- ASRock K10N780SLIX3-WIFI motherboard

I've tried Ubuntu x86 on the same system, but I was having issues with it, so I decided to try FC11 instead.
