-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have been keeping my system up-to-date with apt-get. In addition I recently successfully installed the latest NVIDIA drivers after rebooting the console reports alot of modprobe errors but these are not written to dmesg or /var/log/messages. X starts ok so I can use my KDE desktop. However, console logon is denied and fails with the above message. My kernel is 2.4.21-4-athlon Can anyone offer assistance or tell me where to begin looking for more info?

Sylvanus, Try dropping back to the last SuSE approved kernel, 2.4.20-96 from their update site. It cured some problems I was having with graphics and I suspect it might with you as well. I am guessing you are using Mantel's latest kernel? Pat -- --- KMail v1.5.3 --- SuSE Linux Pro v8.2 --- Registered Linux User #225206 On any other day, that might seem strange...

========== Installation of SuSE' kernel failed because the "/" filesystems was mounted read-only. I have reinstalled SuSE 8.2 whilst keeping my "/home" filesystem. So far, so good Thanks for your help I will now avoid "mantel-kernel" for my main machine. Can anyone suggest an apt-get "sources.list" which uses only SuSe rpms? Thanks Sylvanus

I have had very good luck with the entry below. I DO not put mantel's directory or suse-people in because 9-10 RPM's in these directories are test RPM's and prone to breaking things. I only install RPM's from these directories if I know the packager and email them first. rpm ftp://mirrors.mathematik.uni-bielefeld.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/ SuSE/8.2-i386 base update kde mozilla suser-tcousin packman packman-i686 security xfree86 usr-local-bin -- Ben Rosenberg ---===---===---===--- mailto:ben@whack.org ----- If two men agree on everything, you can be sure that only one of them is doing the thinking.
