Hi all,
I am trying to use kdm instead of xdm, but when I run it I can not login it
just says 'login failed'. I know the password I am using is correct. I am

but when I boot it says it can't find the module sound.

FAT32 file system, but I am now unable to mount this partition under Linux, is
this possible at when it was FAT then I just used the vfat module but this does
not seem to work. Any ideas?
