Thanks Signals, After some problems with Debian accepting my pass words, either mine or administrative, along with Debian stopping in the middle of starting up I finally got the Root terminal to run the command and cured the problem with the resolution. It still doesn't like my passwords as I had to restart the program to get the resolution recognized. It stopped again asking for the password or typing in Control-D. It wouldn't take any of those things and it wasn't till I typed in Exit from the program that it continued on into The Debian Desk top. Thanks friends. Li'l Al |
