Actually, I am just opening a new PMR with IBM to look at this as it is
happening again.

Sorry,

Brian

Subject: X11 vfb problem






I am having this same exact problem.  I haven't rebooting the server in
almost a year and after doing some maintenance I rebooted.  Now I can't
get vfb started.  All I get is the usage statement.

There was no response to this message, but I'm hoping Brian is still
around to give me some pointers.

 I am having a weird one with my Netview server.  I am trying to start
the  
 X11 vfb for the web console daemon netviewd - but when I run startXvfb
it  
 gives me a usage statement and does not start.  It was working for
months  
 until we rebooted the server this morning.

 

 I have tried re-installing the X11.vfb package, but it still fails.

 

 Has anyone seen this behaviour before?

 

 Thanks,

 

 Brian
