Hello all, I have something strange... And I'm not sure this is the best form... so suggest another if you prefer. I have a CentOS (and a Fedora) box with 100+ vlan's. When I boot to run level 3 and startx, X gives a stack trace, pauses for a few seconds and I can use my computer again. I can have 84 vlans and from run level 3, startx. 85 or more and I cannot startx. Assuming that it has something to do with the number of interfaces, there are 2 nics, 1 lo and the vlans. I can have all vlans on and boot to run level 5 successfully. Obviously I have a work around for this, so this is mostly a curiosity thing.
