kkkp working after resetting the pnp modem's jumper. The modem is on COM2

it was in windows. Even file downloading. But the strange thing is

following lines (the first being the standard

Hi,
Recently my system failed to boot (I had added something to rc.local, that didn't
belong there). On irc I was told that I could still boot if I gave linux single at the
LILO boot. This worked, but to my surprise I never had to enter a login or a password.
Even then, I was allowed to

Hi. I've used other distributions of Linux in the past and have never known
how to change the keyboard repeat rate (both the time it takes to start
repeating, and the repeat speed itself) in Linux. However, that wasn't

there is a graphical tool for kde at http://www.kde.org that easily

I can understand that part. I am baffled at what he changed in the rc.local..
The only other thing I could think of would be to change the /etc/inittab file
