Good Point. I've got an ageing copy of Parted Magic, which should allow me to boot into the console.
I just reconnected the battery and switched on to boot into Parted Magic. However, I missed the Bootloader selection screen, so it booted into KDE. Lo and behold, there was no warning message and the battery icon says 6% *charging.* Maybe the guy at Rapid PCs simply didn't push the connector home fully, or he got some dirt in there. Here's hoping. If it really is working, then it should be fully charged in a few hours. -- Terry Coles -- Next meeting: Online, Jitsi, Tuesday, 2024-10-01 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... https://dorset.lug.org.uk New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk
