Greetings;
My system hung and I had to reset it. Now gnome won't
come up when I boot.
I get a screen that has a little window in it that
says something about it can't find a system with
XDMCP(?) running.
I have tried giving it the address of my machine
in every form I can think of to no avail.
I can get a command line window with ctl-alt-F1 so
I probably could fix it if I knew what to do.
Dump gdm (or whichever is the display manager of your choice).
From that command line, su and remove [xgk]dm and reboot. Then
you'll get a console and log in using that, and type "startx" to get
to GNOME.
