Hi,
I am seeing some problems with my alma9 installation.
1. I locked the machine with superkey + l, then I came back and unlocked it.
2. I saw that the upper case keys were on by default and I had to turn
on caps-lock to turn back on the lower case keys.
3. The number pad did not show numbers, but the signs you get when you
press shift, i.e. !@#$...
4. The arrow keys did not do the arrow thing, but they showed upper case
letters, A, F, I do not remember the others.
So I restarted. Then I tried to log in but:
1. When I put the right password, It looks like it will log in, because
the screen goes black, however it comes back to the login screen without
telling me anything else.
2. I know this is not a password issue, because when I put a wrong
password, it tells me that the password is wrong.
3. I can log in as root.
4. I can do su - username and log in from there with my normal password.
I do not recall doing anything special with the computer. Do you know
what might be happening?
Hi,
are any of your partitions full?
Do you see anything useful in the logs?
If you log in as root, create a new user account, log out, and try to
log in as that new user: does it work?
Hopefully some of these lead you to a solution.
Cheers
