I have a system that has been running for several months.  On Wednesday 
of last week the the system crashed due to a heat issue that caused some 
filesystem corruption.

The system is booting fine now after the fsck but the Gnome console 
screen gives a message of: "Failed to start the display server several 
times in a short time period; disabling display :0". Xdm sessions to the 
box connect and I get an hourglass then the session disconnects. I 
checked all the logs for gdm and XFree86 and there is no errors present 
in the files.

Has anyone seen this error before and know how to resolve it. I was 
going to remove the X environment and reinstall it but redhat has 
everything so tied together with the RPM packages it is not easily done.

Thanks
