Hi Duncan
Right had time to fiddle for a while now ..
I can get KDE up using "xinit startkde" all fine but still no
keyboard or mouse , so this seems it may be a kde based problem have
to install and try another desktop to test this out .
PS if anyone else has any suggestions please pipe up i am now getting
desperate to get this machine back up and running have neither the
space or software on here to do what i need ..
Pete
