Ubuntu :: Xvfb Help Failed To Start
Feb 27, 2011
I am thrown in at the deep end and I am trying to get xvfb running but feel like I am doing a driving test blindfolded after a bottle of vodka when I go through the stuff google throws out when I search for help. I get the message when I try xvfb-run xvfb failed to start. I simply don't know where to start trouble shooting as I can't find or create an error log. I am using an aws systen and need it to keep running in the background so that I can use cutycapt, which is the main reason I have to work with it. I am on i386 with ubuntu maverick 10.10. I have installed the fonts and dependent software I think.

I use Linux * 2.6.18-164.10.1.el5.028stab067.4ent #1 SMP Fri Jan 15 03:06:15 MSK 2010 i686 build to configure xvfb + cutycapt, I need it to convert html to image. The package that I have already installed:
build-essential
xvfb
xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi xfonts-scalable xfonts-cyrillic
libgl1-mesa-dri
libqt4-webkit libqt4-dev g++
x11-xkb-utils
xserver-xorg-core
It seems like it works, but there is one problem. It misses chinese symbols when converts html to image. I thought that it is encoding issue and rechecked all my conf related that and set default encoding up to es_US.UTF8.
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
I'm testing these on the 2 computer. local and my vds. They both have Ubuntu 10.04. On the local machine all works fine, but on the vds it doesn't take chinese symbols. Where can I find the difference between machines configurations? I suspect it depends with X server configuration.

What I have is Xubuntu running as a VM with VirtualBox on my Windows 7 Media Center that is always on. I am trying to be able to remotely access an X display on that box to do network auditing/ various linux stuff from the various places I go. I would like it to be as simple as possible and leave no trace on the remote computer, so what I would like is to use a java-enabled browser to connect to an xvfb on xubuntu with SSL encryption. I almost got it working using cherokee/x11vnc/desktop.cgi but it only works once or twice and I get network errors even on localhost. I would rather just not have X running all the time on the VM and just have an xvfb display waiting/created when I log in remotely from a browser.

I am trying to create a screen capture program with Xvfb server, ImageMagick and Khtml2PNG. I seem to be having some issues and was hoping someone could help me out. I have everything installed and working on a centos WHM/CPanel system and am able to generate the screen shots and save them to root folder from shell with the following commands.
Xvfb :2 -screen 0 1024x768x24&
export DISPLAY=localhost:2.0
khtml2png2 --sw 200 --sh 150 http://www.example.com example.png
It works 100% fine when you run it from shell.

Just completed the upgrade to 10.04 from 8.04, and ironing out the wrinkles. Since the upgrade, I'm not able to establish a VPN connection to my institute (a problem since outgoing mail REQUIRES a VPN connection) The pull down menu shows the connection as an option, but clicking on it brings up a separate window that simply says "The VPN connection CfA failed because the VPN Service failed to start." Never had this issue under Hardy, so not sure what's going on. Under "Configure VPN" the settings look the same as they always did.

I accidentally deleted my bin just after booting up when the bin application failed to start properly. I can still send items to trash (right clicking and select from drop down menu) but I cannot restore them, see the bin icon or drag items to the bin area. It is quite annoying and I would be very grateful for comprehensive instructions on how to restore the bin to full operational functionality.

I have a problem in my Ubuntu box. The applications defined in "Startup applications" fail to start. On another user's account, everything works fine. I think that's some configuration problem. Where are the data of of the startup applications stored? (i suppose it's .xx file that I could just delete to restore defaults)

I have a double problem here. I had a problem with ubuntu which I more or less took care of but at the loss of much information but that is neither here nor there. The problem has to do with the here and now. I purchased a ubuntu 10.04 LTS CD. I installed it and partitioned it with my win xp. All seemed to go good but the problems seem to arrive when I booted to the other partition side.
I am able to select the windows xp side and hit enter and and boot to xp. However when I wanted to go to the ubuntu side of things this is where the problems happens. I click enter the ubuntu selection and this error shows up."Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt. <windows root> system32hal.dllPlease re-install a copy of the above file."
The only way I can of getting to the ubuntu side is by inserting the ubuntu cd into the cd/dvd drive. However when I do I get this message."Installation Failed.The installer encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will now run so you may investigate the problem or try installing again."I am hoping that someone here will be able to assist me in finding an solution to my dilemma.

I have just run a fresh install of Kubuntu on an old PC to try it out for a few weeks. The Boot CD works fine and there is a GUI for the install. It seems to detect all the devices without a hitch. But when the PC reboots it boots into command line. When I try to run startx it gives me "AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0"I looked up the x.org website and in the FAQ Here it says "This kind of problem typically occurs when you're using a big monitor with an old graphics card. You can solve it by deleting some of the highest resolutions of the deepest colour mode in the Screen section of your xorg.conf, or even the whole last Display subsection."I am using an old pc with old graphics card with a 25inch HP LP2465 monitor. in my /etc/X11 there is only a xorg.cof.failsafe file. anyone any ideas on how to do this. The full error is attached in a very bad screenshot.

I'm using 10.04 LTS and updated to the last kernel. After reboot the system is hanged to the grub>
I tried to reinstall grub with the 10.04 live CD but the same thing append after reboot!
The only thing I can think of is that the machine is a RAID 1 system! What can I do to restart it normally?

I can't boot from LiveCD, it just gets to the console and informs me that squashFS mount failed for loop0. I don't want to go for full installation before I test it a bit.

I was working on my Drupal test site (running Fedora 11) when it froze. I had to hold down the power button to get it to shut off. When I booted back up, I received the error message "Your system had a kernel failure" after logging in. When I tried to access my test site's ip address or 127.0.0.1, I get the error message "unable to connect". However, I can access and log into Webmin (version 1.440) at 127.0.0.1:10000. Then I noticed that my Apache Web Server (Apache version 2.2.15) was not started. When I try to start it, I get the error message:"Failed to start apache. I'm using Fedora 11, Drupal 6.2 and Apache version 2.2.15.

I know similar questions have been asked but I could find an answer to my exact question. Especially in anything like laymans terms. So when I try to start my iMac G4 running linux it starts, runs lines of code, flashes black then back to code several times then "Failed to start the X server.... output to diagnose the problem..." When I click yes here is what I get:
"Caught signal 11. Sever aborting.
In the mean time codes like the following appear on the side of the screen :
[ 477.501334] eth1: switching to forced 10bt
[ 497.901209] eth1: switching to forced 100bt
and so on.
What do I do?

I've been trying to get my internal microphone to work in F12, and as part of the things I've tried I had the seemingly bad idea of reinstalling pulseaudio. The problem now is that pulseaudio fails to start... The following is from /var/log/messages, and is repeated several times:Code:Nov 24 08:51:20 localhost pulseaudio[6300]: main.c: Daemon startup without any loaded modules, refusing to work.
