BTW, I still feel a little confused on what the OP's original problem was and why they are headed in the direction of a 'reinstall the system'. Seems a bit overkill for most problems.
gdm hangs. All attempts at diagnosis or repair have failed. I've done a yum reinstall *
and the same will happen on the rfresh install
A repetition of the past would be an impovement. I had several months before gdm started hanging.
Most recently I did an explicit uninstall of gdm and its dependents. After installing them again I issued the following command: [root@localhost] hennebry# telinit 5 [root@localhost] hennebry# Calling the system activity data collector (sadc): Starting portreserve: [OK] Enabling p4-clockmod driver (passive cooling only): [OK] Starting irqbalance: [OK] Retrigger failed udev events: [OK] Enabling Bluetooth devices user had insufficient privilege
After I got back from another virtual terminal, the subsequent lines had appeared. I do not have any bluetooth devices.
so disable Bluetooth services would be a start to solve the problem
chkconfig --help chkconfig --list
in general: disable *all* unsued services do you use NFS? if not why portreserve get started?
After getting rid of portreserve, nfslock and bluetooth, the only change was that Enabling Bluetooth devices no longer appeared.
