[Ilugc] X Problem

I have disabled SELinux while installing

[root@snmoorthy ~]# sestatus
SELinux status:                 disabled

[moorthy@snmoorthy ~]$ id -Z
Sorry, --context (-Z) can be used only on a selinux-enabled kernel.

The file size and contents (checked with diff) of /etc/skel/* and in
my home directory are smae.

Regards
Moorthy

try this "cp /etc/skel/.* ~/" and then startx

You might just be missing the startup files for gnome/kde/...

And lose all customizations, bashrc et al? I wouldn't do that!

Move all your dotfiles before trying this, if you don't want to lose
your customization.
