I think you meant util-linux, and fortunately pacman makes this ridiculously painless to do. I tried reinstalling these packages, but nothing has changed. Nonetheless, I think you may well be right about the power outage being the cause: my laptop, which I was afraid to reboot because it was my only functioning linux graphical environment, seems to have been unaffected (it, of course, has its own battery backup). I may be wrong here if there is a relevant difference between the 64-bit and 32-bit packages (the laptop is 32-bit). > > > On 15 August 2012 21:36, David Benfell <benfell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > wrote: > > On 08/15/2012 11:31 AM, David Benfell wrote: >>>> On 08/15/2012 10:55 AM, Jameson wrote: >>>>> On Wed, Aug 15, 2012 at 4:03 AM, David Benfell >>>>> <benfell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >>>>>> Also when I log in, the password is visible. >>>> >>>>> The first place I would check for this would be your >>>>> console font/keymap config in /etc/vconsole.conf: >>>>> https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd#Console_and_keymap >>>> >>>>> >>>>> =-Jameson >>>> >>>> I saw this: >>>> >>>> graton% sudo cat /etc/vconsole.conf KEYMAP=us FONT=lat9w-16 >>>> FONT_MAP=8859-1_to_uni graton% >>>> >>>> No change. >>>> >>>> Thanks! >>>> > Oh, and by the way (as in perhaps this is more relevant than I > realize), the system still comes up under traditional init, so I'm > using that for the moment, though I had to switch to Cinnamon for > the graphical environment (neither XFCE nor Gnome would start; I > didn't try Cinnamon 2 or whatever the other Cinnamon is). > >> - -- David Benfell benfell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJQK/TWAAoJELT202JKF+xp6OYP+wQWWtZv4NvI2Pqhd97q8UlG Ru7k472DMMaY847zSWFPLbSbTPqrB3E8IACIdsKJLnRMwgcG72eKSFVG6i74hsAC RT6BcEi7yWnlk0NdBekxK/cgGFengYnTyeOFZuUhWn0C5197BTVyhhMWsSj1p5Wr 1VGf16hrwXuP52tS0a1mRbfWd7WMClqLKtWe5Jo+yKR3FcPyzrDMEjQel5kdOLNY V6vzYKcivNl+ZqWEfu85Z0xL/ZyXZT9eX8B5D6oEJlzPrx4cJiB2tbSMfy+yND5z Z5Gi/h9lwwvR7mIcMYcGLivruyEyACR8pGGPIqTIdmM5lTJHRsiltKunEr+C/8rl kxQjvp3iPcbdCdIo67cHm9AFWl9hCwmu+oYmxjj+CIOHWRJ28wN+uQchwxIREa7V zNvprucpIshAVaB+PQQ0+xJASu6LNZcW5TKg0tDScRt87/3OA6eK1b/i20MPBYKj jv9VaUKeZJNPAvjU8/qdaCQjNrmJCBPt7wPucMRY/gUdZc35HN048iZXt2vmzti1 r/DCoNzo1PuyzbJAKQLZeZ4toIWs8ogb2cCTAGNQSVtkC1zYpjh3BAmWKJRpujJ3 aaJWpMPp21adacoy+9HHKC26neeKJYmUfMkNMsya0tDiD5j5fuKtTfnRfrDNdUSp lgC3WS1CWJ1dpuCJgO+R =aL8y -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
