] Hi all,
]
] I am running RH 6.0. It came with xf86 3.3.3.1. Since my
] card(SiS620) was not supported I had to upgrade it to x 3.3.4
] But when I did this and rebooted the X font server would refuse to start
] up and the system would hang. The only way I could get past this was to
] re-install 6.0. My default runlevel is 3 (full multi-user mode). Is
] there a way to disable the xfs in one of the rc scripts and start it
] later after logging in or is there a more elegant solution ?
Boot single user mode (type "linux single" at the LILO prompt).
When the system boots single-user, do "chkconfig xfs off". This
will make xfs no longer start up at boot.
You can then either type "reboot", or hit ^D to let it finish
booting.
