I recently updated from OS 11.2 to OS 11.3 and right after that had problems with my X.org server.If started with normal settings X crashes in runlevel 5, so right at the end of the boot process.If started with x11debug option X works, However I cannot use wine with this option.I don't even have an idea how to look for the problem, but there must be some feature that causes X to crash, which is not included in the debug-mode.

I just updated my box to 11.3. And now when it starts, it goes to runlevel 3 which means the X server is not working. I'm using Radeon HD 4670. How do I configure X from runlevel 3?

I suspect this to be related to the hplip drivers I installed before the last reboot, all I did was select the package in sulfur, and as it worked right out of the box, I changed nothing else.
runlevels 2 -5 are identical in Ubuntu. /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf is used instead of /etc/inittab for changing the runlevel. But there's no point doing that since the runlevels are identical. The default runlevel is 2, so I tried to find some service I could disable in /etc/rc2.d. I didn't find anything I could work with.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to edit /etc/inittab so that I can make run level 3 as my default runlevel but whenever I try to edit it, it opens in read only mode. I am logging in as root still not be able to edit the file. It still shows read only. Also tried chown/chmod to change the file permission but it won't let me change anything related to inittab. Also checked the /boot/grub/grub.conf to see if the file system is mounting as ro. Also tried with rw but didn't work.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm installing 11.4 as a guest under Citrix's XenServer. The only access to a guest's graphical desktop is via VNC.The problem is that I can't achieve runlevel 5 as X can't find any devices. With 11.3 I was able to run Sax2 and add a dummy screen device to Xorg.conf that it created.When Sax2 was removed from 11.4, what was the fall-back for configuring X?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with the runlevel editor. It hangs at 28 per cent when initialising the runlevels. (Process: y2base runlevel qt). It used to work fine, probably until.I installed an update recommended by yast, including a new kernel. I did not immediately reboot after installing the new kernel but used the runlevel editor, which has hung since then.I've tried a reboot without success.Does anyone know what I could do to get this running again?

View 9 Replies View RelatedApache is set to start on runlevel 2, 3 and 5, just like MySQL. For some obscure reason this always fails. I tried resetting the runlevels, but this did not help and I always have to start apache manually after reboot.
How can I analyze this problem? In the Apache logs I don't find the cause. Is there an other log I can check?
With the default boot set to runlevel 5 you have a login screen that provides a menu to choose which desktop to run (KDE, Gnome, etc).
My machine is set to boot to runlevel 3. How can I switch the desktop from the command line before starting X?
Fedora has a nice little utility called switchdesk, but can't find anything like it for openSUSE 11.2.
It's looking like from the options on the grub CL that the highest I can go is 1280x1020x32bit. But it still does not fit my entire screen (23'' LED) if there is a way to make runlevel 3 1920x1080, I have a Nvidia GTX460. Also, whether or not I can do it, how do I save the settings, so I don't have to type it in at the bottom of the screen in the boot menu? How do I drop back to runlevel 3, when I'm in the x system (GUI)?
View 4 Replies View RelatedEverything worked fine for several updates to the final system, now suddenly when trying to login dropping out at runlevel 5 and login. When doing login the system starts as root with startx but not as user. This is for me a permission problem. Only: I did not change the permissions and I did not log into as a root-X system. I just did set the permissions in yast to secure. Nothing else. The system complains:

For some reason today when I attempted to reboot my machine I am unable to start runlevel 5. The errors I am getting are the following:
Failed services in runlevel 5: vmware
Skipped services in runlevel 5: cifs nfs
I uninstalled Vmware in hopes that it would solve the problem. No dice.
how to debug this or has anyone seen this issue before.
I want to automatically run a script once the system has entered runlevel 3 during boot (the script requires network access). I know about /etc/init.d/boot.local but it's my understanding it's triggered in runlevel 1. I also know about init.d scripts but they seem a little daunting.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm relatively new to Linux and to openSUSE. I've been using 11.3 as the OS on my home server for awhile using a GUI (Gnome). I recently created a new server which is much more powerful and would like to get serious about learning the ins and outs of the system. I've learned some basic bash and would like to install 11.4 on the new server. I have two questions about this. The first is: does it add any system overhead if I install KDE but set the default runlevel to 3? I know that running the GUI takes up system resources, but I'm new enough to the system that I'm not 100% comfortable yet not having a GUI backup. On the other hand, if having a GUI installed eats up resources (other than the HDD space for installing it) even if I'm only using the system in runlevel 3, then I think I'll forgo KDE and install it as text only and just bone up on bash.
My second question is: is there a file I can edit to customize the runlevel 3 console? I just installed 11.4 on my HP Mini using KDE but defaulting to runlevel 3, and I really like the background picture and little SUSE lizard at the top of my console. Is there a way to change the background picture and logo at the top? It's probably a little juvenile on my part to want to customize this but Linux is all about choice right?
Every time I leave runlevel 5 (shutdown, reboot, init 3 or whatever) and then return to runlevel 5, I lose sound and have to delete and then re-edit sound card config in Yast Sound module to restore it.When returning to GUI environment, the sound card appears OK in Yast but I get no sound from any of my multimedia apps - Amarok, VLC, Firefox all go quiet. Strangely, it still plays the KDE intro jingle when KDE starts up.To restore sound I click delete in Yast and I'm prompted with the following KDE dialogue:
Removed Sound Devices
KDE detected one or more internal sound devices were removed.
Do you want KDE to permanently forget about these devices?

I understand that the K (KDE) network manager is a KDE app but does it actually function in runlevel 3? By that I mean does it allow wireless connections to work? I've been trying to do this but can't. I have a need to while in KDE to sometime init 3 and while in runlevel 3 I need my wireless to work. I havent figured out if Knetwork manager still functions outside of KDE or if I need to just use ifup traditional.
I did search the forum for threads related to knetwork manager and did not see anything related to this so I hope someone can assist me. Also if I do need to use ifup traditional method, is there anything specail I need to do so that it works without issues such as, uninstall knetwork manager or something else? I ask this because my previous attempts at using ifup (by switching to it from YAST) end up making my wireless not work. I can scan and find my network but after entering my creds it doesnt do anything. I managed to get it to work once somehow but after a shutdown and reboot it no longer worked. Just incase you need to know, I'm running Suse11.4 KDE 4.6, my wireless module I believe is a iwlagn or something like that. My laptop which Suse is running on is a Toshiba A665-S6086 core i3, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD.
After the GRUB prompt, my boot process does not advance to the login GUI. It kicks me out to the console view of the boot process and ends with a text prompt for logging in.
I get the following message just before the "Welcome to OpenSUSE 11.1" line:
Skipped services in runlevel 5: nfs
what's happening and how can I retrieve the login GUI?
I am trying to install openSuSE 11.4 on my IBM xSeries 440 Server and I am not having much success. I am getting to the welcome screen and installation menu screen fine, but when I select the 'install' option it loads the Linux kernel up to %100 and then just goes to a black screen from which the only escape is a reboot, the same thing happens when I select 'check installation media' and 'Firmware test'. I have tried the 'no ACPI' and 'safe settings' setting and still no luck.
I have successfully installed Windows server 2003 Enterprise edition on this machine so I know the hardware is ok.I suspect it could be a driver issue, but as I am very new to Linux and server installations I am grasping at straws.

I boot by default into Runlevel 3 on my F12 Server. If I need GUI apps then I run startx.The server I'm using (eeeBox eb1501) has a wired and a wireless LAN interfaces. I run two networks and want to be able to connect to the wirelss one without having to start Gnome or KDE just to get the WLAN to connect.IS this someting to do with the NetworkManager or just the gnome-keyring?The wired interface comes up at boot but the Wireless one won't until I start the GUI.
