Are you sure? On my system, this produces nothing at all. But the

everything is frozen at that point, including the daemons that had been
running. Ping even suddenly reports no route to that host. Still, this is
information and progress of a sort.

keyboard. But I cannot find an xorg.conf file anywhere.
Probably I just need to find out where the config settings are kept, and I
can reset them from a backup. Does anybody know?

- I can set the mainboard to use AHCI or IDE compatibility

Linux.
Mainboard had 6 ports available, but it appears that my fooling with things
broke a pair of them. That's why I need the replac

of things have been going wrong, and I've been learning how to cope.
So I wonder if there's a way to get that partition back, at least in part,
without using my backups.
Any hints, pointers, tutorials, or opinions welcome.

results in a black screen.
I restored these, created /sys and /proc, and tried to boot the resulting
partition. It boots, but X does not come up, or even seem to try. I can
do a console login to my usual account, and stuff is there.
I'm quite clueless as to why this is happening. I c
i can. I have another
of the same size that's empty, and I could just copy the whole drive to it,
but I need a tool that's robust in the presence of errors.
I've never had to do this before. Any suggestions?

_best_. I'm a bit daunted by the size of /etc/lvm/lvm.conf, and wonder if
the defaults are going to work for me.
I'm about to start a backup of the existing system. It will take a while.
I wonder if anyone has wisdom they'd like to share.

I sometimes use lpr in a pipeline getting postscript from groff. My
printer (HP CP2025dn) has a duplexer and I'd like to use it. I could look
up the Postscript for that, but I'm wondering if there's a way to force
either of groff or lpr to do it for me.
