Howdy,
I have a server on which I want to grant some users access via VNC. I
the README.inetd file showed how to run KDM on VNC. It's pretty slick!
But whenever I start kdm, it starts X and displays It's prompt on tty1.
I don't want KDM to run on the console. This is a server, and I like the
o
x27;d like it to be writable by ordinary users.
I've tried fiddling the permissions of the mount point, and options to
the mount command, but have had no luck. Anyone know how to make my FAT
partition writable?
thanks,
Rich

Hi,
I'm trying to install Sarge and everything is fine

The CD isn't recognised, and the prompt to insert

Lastly, when burning the CD, burn it at a slow speed. I'd recommend x8 or
lower.
Failing that, all I can suggest is trying a different CD-RW.
