I am embarrassed to admit that after days of trying, unsuccessfully, to back out of the bind, I managed to lose even the one working kernel. And I desparately needed access to gnucash. So I broke down and reinstalled. The one lesson that I learned, very, very firmly, is to pay attention to the BIG FAT WARNING -- which I had missed -- in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/power.uswsusp.txt against trying to resume from a different kernel. Clearly I was out of my depth in that sea. -- johnrchamp...@columbus.rr.com ==================================================== GPG key 1024D/99421A63 2005-01-05 EE51 79E9 F244 D734 A012 1CEC 7813 9FE9 9942 1A63 gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 99421A63
