Subject: Gnome Display Mgr fails to load
 
I am trying to install a Ubuntu 9.04 system on a usb hard drive. I have had
this same setup installed using Opensuse so I know it will work. I can load
the CD-Live and it works normal. When I do an install to the hard drive and
try to load it, I get an error message.

<init: name_to_dev_t(/dev/disk/by-uuid/7eb39bfc-e0ef-4bb3-a8d0-e3dcf4eeb945)
= dev(8,5)
<init: trying to resume from
/dev/disk/by-uuid/7eb39bfc-e0ef-4bb3-a8d0-e3dcf4eeb945)
<init: No resume image, doing normal boot
Trying to resume   No resume image.
 
If I do a boot and hit alt - F3, everything has an OK except Gnome Display
Manager. It has (Fail) after it.
 
 
If I enter startx I get the following message.

I'm new to Linux so I could use some help.

Since my last message, I d/l a new copy of CD-Live and re-installed.
I am still getting the same result.
Does anyone have any ideas to try.
