Hello,
I have done following steps:
Press Ctrl+Alt+F2
By root login, I entered following command :
yum groupinstall basic-desktop desktop-platform x11 fonts
Then I reboot system; only blank screen appears ; not even cursor.
Then I tried this :
yum groupinstall -y ' X Windows System'
yum groupinstall -y ' Desktop '
Then I open */etc/inittab* via text editor and change following line:
id:3:initdefault:
To:
id:5:initdefault:
Then give command to start the GUI:
$ init 5 but screen stop responding after giving message " Starting jexec services ".
After that I reboot system, Then I run.
$ startx
It has loaded some packages but failed to load and stop there.
Then I tried this gnome-session, gnome-panel and gnome-applets.
It has said everything is installed.
After this, I tried this:
yum -y groupinstall "X Window System" "Desktop" "Fonts" "General Purpose Desktop"
upto 83 MB installation Then I reboot and entered startx
it has given following error and stopped
Loading extension GLX FATAL: Module fbcon not found. [dix] Could not init font path element catalogue:/etc/X11/fontpath.d, removing from list! [dix] Could not init font path element built-ins, removing from list!

[89.274] (EE) [89.274] (II) AIGLX: Suspending AIGLX clients for VT switch
Now as the last measure, I have run the
yum -y update
today itself. 243 MB, will get complete tomorrow (as per I hope).
I have google for this but not find confirm solution.
Am I missing something; please help ??
Seeking for guidance,
Thank you !!!
