Xserver failed to start

[dcooke at efn.org]

In trying to get Yum working,

I stopped these services improperly

named
messagebus
nfs

and now my system either takes forever to boot or doesn't at all.


I restarted them and saved but it didn't work on reboot. Seems the
system really needs dbus services and 'messagebus' but I can't seem
to save it in the gui.

Failed to start xserver (graphical interface).


After viewing xserver output and okay to diagnose got 'fatal server
error'. And 'could not init font path element unix/:7100, removing
from list'.


I truly appreciate any help.

Currently using Fedora Core 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5smp
