Don and Wolfgang,
Thanks for all of your help and advice.
I just found and fixed the problem. SOmething changed the "kdmrc" file from
"Enable=true"
to "Eenable =false". I can only guess that it had something to do with the
"buildk" script.
I don't think that merely building the kernel would do anything like this.
In any event, I'm very glad to have the system working once again. Of course
I still need to
get the nvidia kernel driver and oss sound working. I'll have to leave these
for another day
when I have more time "just in case".
Thanks again,
Rob
