I'm very new to Linux--in fact just got the Linux/Windoze (I've learned to spell it that way!) dual boot to work with LILO.
First I tried XF86Setup, but could not get past the mouse config. I have a Microsoft PS2 mouse with wheel, so checked off PS2 and /dev/psaux (as suggested in the Control-Escape website). This didn't work, and I couldn't get past this point in XF86Setup, so I tried xf86config. It seemed to go well, and I believe that I entered all the parameters correctly. I used SuperProbe to learn that I have an ATI 3D Rage II+ with 2048K of memory and the ATI Mach64 chipset. Now when I start Linux I get a colorful screen with the sign-on prompt. After signing on I get a solid blue screen, and any key that I hit just "beeps." The key sequence Ctl-Alt-Bksp just re-displays the sign-on screen. All I can do at this point is turn the power off; even Ctl-Alt-Del won't do anything! Is there any way to get back to where I was before this mess? Thanks, Peter
