OS: SuSE 9.3 Pro Friday night, there was an extended power outage which exhausted the UPSes forcing a shutdown. When this system (running on Dell 600SC hardware) came back up, there were no logins on tty1 - tty6 and several processes failed to start (cups, postfix, postgrey, for example). These are all configured to start on system boot. KDE appears to work and I can login in via ssh. If I attempt to manually start a getty (e.g., mingetty tty2), the shell session goes away. tty2 - tty6 are blank and tty1 has the bootup stuff. I did a system repair from the SuSE media to no avail so I restored the root filesystem from the previous week's master backup (/home was not restores to avoid losing email, etc. received since the last backup). However the problem persists. I am at a loss as to how to troubleshoot, much less fix this problem. Any ideas or suggestions? Thank you, Lucky Leavell
