init 3 it did shutdown the partly working X session. Several line
flashed on screen and 2 had FAILED at end of line. Too fast to readtwhat
it said.
startx Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
If the server is no longer running, remove /tmp/
.X0-lock and start again.
I did yum remove /tmp/ .X0-lock. It removed 17 packages and
then I did startx (again) Got the same re: remove /tmp/ .X0-lock. One
other line I saw Unable to connect to X server was present in output of
startx.
