Hi CLUGies I have recently completed a clean up of my old installation of Mandrake 9.1 running KDE 3.1.2 i586
everything was running fine but when I reinstalled the latest version of the NVIDA driver the display manager refused to start I have checked run levels etc. , and followed all the install instructions for the NVIDA driver (which I have used previously without problems), made the recommended mod to "/etc/innittab" all as per previous installation etc. etc. During the boot up the following messasage comes up: "acpi daemon.... no such acpid ....can't open /proc/acpi/event.. .... proc/acpi/event no such file or directory..." I have checked /proc/acpi/ and there is no "event" file/directory I followed the NVIDIA instructions and uninstalled the new driver and reset "/etc/innittab" to the default settings but when I reboot I still get the same error message also run level is set back to "5" - default any ideas?? cheers.............dave
