hello all one of the differences between debian and windows was that debian did not turn numlock on by default while booting.
in my quest for finding a solution for this problem, i came across a script on this mailing list which claimed to do this. here is the script: #!/bin/sh INITTY=/dev/tty[1-6] for tty in $INITTY; do setleds -D +num < $tty done i made a file setleds in /etc/init.d and created a link named S20setleds to it in /etc/rc2.d as was suggested in the post. and disaster struck. my system refused to give me a login prompt!! i did init=/bin/bash at lilo. this gave me a prompt but mounted filesystem readonly. how do i make it read-write? lastly, i booted from installation cd and mounted my filesystem, removed the link and could get to boot in normally. what is wrong with the script? is there any way in which i can make num lock turned on on all virtual consoles? -- regards, sandip p deshmukh ------***-------- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
