In KDE you ca= n look=20 for the program konsole. This will give you a command console similiar = to a=20 DOS command prompt (But infinitely more powerful ;). You have to do the= se as=20 the root user. That means when you open the (c/k)onsole, you must type = 'su'=20 and it will ask you for the root password that you specified at install= time.=20 If you lack konsole, all distributions will let you push CTRL-ALT-F1 an= d you=20 will get a raw login console. Username root and your password will let = you=20 then type in the commands Ray Specified. =46urthermore, lacking konsole, you can try the program 'xterm' for the= same=20 results. Remeber to type these as the root user or you lack enough=20 permissions to get things done! I hope that lets you start on Ray's advice! --=20 ---------------------------------------- --EB > All is fine except that I can reliably "oops" it simply by trying to = read > from /proc/apm (e.g. cat /proc/apm). > oops output and ksymoops-2.3.4 output is attached. > Is there anything else I can contribute?
