Graphic Console Frozen

[Michael Schulte zur Sur]

Hi Bruno,

are you talking about the hwmgr command?
If you have got Tru Unix 4.X, you do not have that command.
You must stop the machine as root with init 0
Then, when you the >>> prompt, use show command.
Have you been in /var/adm/syslog.dated/current and looked into daemon.log and user.log. If there are any errors, not mentioned here, post them

greetings,

Michael

hwmgr/ifconfig is not necessary for checking network settings. Like all other Unix derivats dns, yp, routing etc. must be checked (all unix implementations uses similar config files and the man-pages will give a clue).

If have no hints, call the HP support center for further help!

Hello Michael.

I checked the daemon.log and it gives the following message:

Mar 2 16:35:37 dasscws1 ttsession[13411]: Cannot register service: RPC: Timed out

Thanks

Hey Michael,

Here you are :

rpcinfo: can't contact portmapper: RPC: Remote system error - Connection refused

this is the message that rpcinfo -p showed.
Thanks
A lot ..

as written in previous post: ttsession is the tooltalk system. Tooltalk requires proper network configuration. So please check network settings as required by CDE.

After it works with xdm/failsafe mode check network settings. Most likely nameresolution problems.

In case of your rpc error, be sure you have enabled NFS also starting the rpc system.
Try

# /sbin/init.d/nfs stop
# /sbin/init.d/nfs start

check if portmap daemon is still running afterwards, if not configure nfs! This means "check settings"....

Hi Bruno,

I thought so, that there would a problem with protmap.

What os release/patch kit are you running?
