2 days back it was fine.

so, what changed in those two days?

someone tell me what packages should I reinstall again?

maybe you can reconfigure your x window system to solve the problem (on debian/ubuntu, it's "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" but i don't know what to do on fedora/centos/etc). maybe all you need is a DRI entry in the file.

Just want to make sure that you uninstalled yahoo messenger.

And it might also be helpful to provide the list of files contained in that package.
