On my son's laptop, I went to reboot this morning. (I was trying to see why I couldn't connect via ssh.) On boot, I got a message that /tmp was full and that the desktop manager would not start.
What do I do? It won't let me login.
At the boot prompt type a 3 to boot to a console and login as root. Then clean out tmp. I'd suggest setting in YaST-->System-->Kernel Settings to clean tmp on boot. Once you have tmp cleaned issue init 5 to go the the kdm boot screen. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
