Hi everyone,
Sorry about this - complete newb to linux. I changed network settings trying
to install a wireless network card, and another lan connection using the
gui interface in KDE, now I can't access the system at all.
I think the problem is that the files /usr/sbin/pconf and /etc/hosts both
show http://thesite.com instead of localhost now. I can access the failsafe
program and I can read these files, I can open emacs but I've no idea how
to change this so I can get into the gui interface again as localhost.
Hope this is specific enough, struggling!!
Thanks,
Darragh
You do create interesting problems. To fix /etc/hosts, try something
like "echo 127.0.0.1 localhost.localnet localhost > /etc/hosts". This
should get you back up and running. I am not sure what to do about
pconf, as I do not have the file on this system.
