startx on console 2
I seem to recall that there is some special option to run X11 on <Alt-F2> On this ClearOS system, their console sits on the default console. You have to <Alt-F2> (etc.) to get a text login. Now that I have Xfce kind of installed, I want to see it on the system console, and I thought that just running startx would work. It doesn't. Got some errors. And then I remembered years

Error running startx as non-root user
I've been looking online for resources that may help me, but I haven't found anything that worked. I'm trying to run x as a non-root user. Any suggestions? I get the messages: Fatal server error: PAM authentication failed, cannot start X server. Perhaps you do not have console ownership? Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support at

GUI black screen on login, startx works???
Hello, I'm using a recent install of centos 7, no GUI customizations that I recall.

If I hit control-alt-f4 and log in using the command line, and then execute startx, Everything seems to work perfectly. What sort of troubleshooting

more newbie questions -- init 5 works, init 3 doesn't for "normal" users
OK, after 3 tries I got CentOS 6.6 installed (don't ask). Now something very odd is happening. My regular user, me, can not login to level 3 without odd errors. I get /home/<username> not found when it's there and setup with correct permissions -- well here I am using it in run level 5 just fine! So, my normal user is left logged in at /root. Even if I move over to the correct

Santi, In the second line of your function you have the following: f <- numeric(length(x)) This sets the length of this numeric vector (i.e., "f") to the length of the vector "x".
