I find I keep opening and closing the keyboard .. Oops! Bad move ... I made .Xmodmap with keysym semicolon = semicolon colon bar bar bar keysym plus = plus equal Tab Tab Tab keysym m = m M Escape Escape Escape and put if [ -x /usr/bin/xmodmap -a -s .Xmodmap ] ; then xmodmap .Xmodmap fi in ~user/.profile, and now it won't boot. Keeps looping. I have the key lock on so sshd won't come up. Bah! Back to the flasher, I guess, unless anyone's got any suggestions. -- Andrew Daviel, TRIUMF, Canada Tel. +1 (604) 222-7376 (Pacific Time) Network Security Manager
