Does your old user still exist on the system? What happens when you boot to runlevel 3 and then type startx? What errors show up?
I always use knoppix for linux demos - very nice system...

I booted from the Morphix CD to try it out before I sent it off to someone as a tool to promote Linux. *Supposedly* it will not alter your existing system, but I have found out the hard way that this is not the case. Now my login has changed from my machine name, Node1, to "morphix", though I have checked /etc/hosts and /etc/sysconfig/network and neither have been altered. The biggest problem is that my X server config has somehow been altered, I'm assuming, because I can no longer start any WM or DE except KDE (and you all know how I feel about that). My XF86Config-4 is unchanged, so I do not know where to go from here in order to get my system back the way it was. I have posted a request for help on the Morphix site, but so far no response. I can assure you I will *not* be recommending this to *anyone* to try out Linux... -- HaywireMac Registered Linux user #282046 Homepage: www.orderinchaos.org ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Mandrake HowTo's & More: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Nasrudin walked into a teahouse and declaimed, "The moon is more useful than the sun."
