Hi fellas, Yesterday While I was on my Linux box running RHL 6.0 and KDE I tried to access a .pdf file. X crashed and so did all my virtual terminals -- I was at my prompt with line drawing characters I tried the usual method cat ^N ^D and nothin' happened. I then tried reset and no change. I then tried SVGATextMode with no parameters and it just worked fine and returned me to the console with readable characters.I then restarted X and KDE. My X crashed after working for sometime and returned me to the prompt (which was readable now). I logged out and tried to login again which resulted in a strange message which started flooding all my tty? 's The error message was this " ll_rw_block : device 03:43 : only 512-char blocks implemented(4096) " (Without the quotes ofcourse :)) I had no control over my keyboard and had to make a hard boot. On rebooting my machine turned normal with fsck deleting one inode. I dunno what the problem was and why did I receive the error message. Before all this happened I compiled some gtk programs which worked just fine. Any one got any pointers on this ?? Thankin' U fellas in anticipation, Siva -------------------------------------------------------------------- The Linux India Mailing List Archives are now available.
