Occasionally this behaviour will also manifest itself after a system crash due to power outage (power failure, the cat pulling the plug out, etc...). After rebooting, the default profile warning may be present.
my computer is powered by an UPS, so a power outage never happens around here:) I haven't had a real OS crash in.... a very long time. I just had an interesting happening though, somehow my wife decided to reboot the computer, but it didn't finish, leaving me ( not her) logged in, but it left her at the blank screen with a flashing cursor. When I did a real reboot, it still came back up to that same cursor, yes, in init 5. When I rebooted AGAIN and watched the entries, it seems that the NVIDIA driver wasn't loaded correctly, so I reran the .run shell script and it all came back up fine.. no clue why the video driver decided to go south... but thanks for the info on the profiles, much appreciated! -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 X-Request-PGP: http://home.comcast.net/~p.cartwright/wsb/key.asc
