If you're where I think you were... Back at the main KDM screen, chose the 'shutdown' button... Type in your root password in the window, hit return (which should un-ghost' the "go" button) and then click on the 'go' button. If you try to hit return instead of clicking on that button it thinks you've typed in another password (which is blank and not root's) and ghosts the go button again. -- Alan Melick, NOC Engineer II Fuse Internet Access On Thu, 11 Feb 1999, Delbaere, Tim wrote:

I have only root login. I have not made any other users as yet.

Hello,

I recently installed SuSE Linux 5.2 onto my PC, and last night I set up KDM, and change the login to be graphical. All OK. When I tried to exit last night I could not shutdown, the little button was pressed, but the GO button would not highlight, and so I had to switch off the PC.

Any Ideas

Thanks Tim Delbaere Environment & 0171 692 8024 ) EGH 603 <<A HREF="mailto:txdelbae@ctrl.co.uk">mailto:txdelbae@ctrl.co.uk</A>>
