As I say, this is intermittent. This mornings boot of the workstation the login appear and the fonts are the normal size. But that's the same kernel and library and config that I used yesterday over three separate boots, non of which were normal and all three were different in what the Ctl-Alt-Del showed.
Like I said earlier ... ALMOST
I hot-key this Am to Ctl-AltF1 and see the login prompt in a normal font so login as root.
I get the "have a lot of fun" messaga agd a # prompt.
I hit return.
NOTHING HAPPENS.
no new line.
I hot-key to Ctl-AltF2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and see the same thing.
No, nt the same phenomena, the same screen. its as if the framebuffer or whatever, is mapped to them all. I see the exact same screen, pixel for pixel.
However, there should be login prompts on each

There's something inconsistent or perhaps its consistent and I'm just seen different manifestations based on a variable that I'm unaware of.
You have active logins to all those tty's. A "ps -ef|grep tty" on my system only reveals tty's with active logins. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
