what are you trying to accomplish? end results? do you boot cl or x?

if you boot, or, where already in 'x', this is proper.

need replies to above before trying below;

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# GOT SIGHUP
startkde: Starting up...
kbuildsycoca running...

if in x, dropped how ever to cl, return with '<alt+f7>'.

works for me when i '<ctrl+alt+fx>' [x=1,2,3,4,5,6] from x to cl.

also, cyoa. be very careful playing root. ;)

[how is monitor?]


peace out.

Hi George,

How are you.

I had this experience with knoppix, ok don't laugh.
Anyway the long and the short of it is that I was left with a graphical login with an odd set of users I have never ever had anything to do with, and it was not difficult in MCC ro remove these clandestined users and put back my user, fine. Trouble is something didn't just remove and replace users it eliminated my graphical desktop choices from session types. Yes I know I can boot to desktop on the Cl, I just did so, via my previous email including kde, I guess gmone will be similar. I just wanted to learn how to set up the graphical login window to include my session choices, ie kde, gnome and icewarm, and blackbox etc., etc.


I gave up in the end and elected to reinstall, but that is a windblowish solution, and I just think I would like to know how to get my session choices back in the login window. That's all.

About the monitor, not had a good working M9.1 dektop to work with yet, so I'm still with M9.0 for the time being. Until and unless I get that fully working M9.1 desktop I'm affraid I cannot give a definative answer. I know the screensaver is ok, that works fine. I am not sure about full screen shutdown, don't think the settern arguement applies though ? , doesn't seem to, but I do get the old involutary screen shutdown in M9.0 as before, even with the replacement screen , so it's looking OS related to me, meaning the likelyhood of an identicle problem in both monitors is extremely long odds, but one thing I have definately noticed the involuntary screen shutdown occures infrequently BUT is most often occuring with a temperature DROP, not a rise in temperature as previously thought. So if I have a warm day or too with rising temperatures , everything is OK, but just as soon as I get a drop in temperatures , it plays up for a while. so the involuntary blank screen thing seems to be monitor related, while the planned blankscreen shutdown (with the setterm command) seems to be OS related, and therein lies the crux of the matter, two problems manifesting themselves as one problem. Hope I make sense to you.

John
