After bootup, (Run Level 5), I ran
System->Administration->Services
I checked each service that was marked red (disabled).
For a few of these disabled services, status was shown to be running.
These services were:
akmods
capi
hsqldb
isdn
jetty
lm_sensors
racoon
sandbox
vmware
zvbid
So, how would I prevent them from being started when
they are already marked as disabled.
Also, several services which are enabled, the status was shown
to be stopped. So, I had to start them.
One of them was hal daemon. Others that I recall were:
smbd, nmbd, ntpd, ...etc.
I regret not saving their names on file to mention all of them.
Can anyone else confirm this when running Sysytem->Administration->Services?
JD,
It's possible that system-config-services is not working correctly. As
an alternative, use chkconfig to look at the default startup status for
each of those services:
# chkconfig --list | grep akmods
akmods 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
If you really want to disable akmods at startup:
# chkconfig akmods off
# service akmods stop
Repeat for the other services.
