Eeek, Just made the mistake of trying a terminal switch whilst running quake2 3.2 beta ( curiousity did indeed kill the cat here <grin>) anyway resulted in a total lockup. took of 3dfx loop cable and bypassed monitor no luck :(. No response on numlock/caps either so i had to reboot.
When it came back up i could not log on as root, password not accepted, taking a stab i tried again using <blank> password phew sigh of relief ok, ive restored the root account password but how the hell did it vanish on me and become blank. Suspected at first file corruption as i had to reset the pc , but my normal user account was fine ??? so that doesnt make sense. I also this morning synched with slink, any connection ????. Bug or foul play >;0) Cheers Damn this OS is addictive !!
