Re: [K12OSN] x won't start on server

Jimmy,

SOrry, my mistake.  Port 7100 is the port you need to be looking for.
177 is for xdmcp (gdm-binary).

As you can see, there is something listening on 7100 like there
should be.

Since restarting xfs, have you tried to bring up X again on the
console ?

Jim.
