Talking about that message.
Yesterday I was installing some rpm but yesterday I reboot and the system
sometimes it looks work well.
RPMs: libvga..., glide..., quake2....
I reboot and I was playing Quake2. OK.
Today when I reboot LM 8.0 I can�t get X works, only text console, and a
message was printed:
Winbond Super-10 detection, now testing ports 3F0, 370, 200, 4E, 2E....
SMSC Super-10 detection, now testing ports 3F0, 370......
Press Return.
Finally after try to repair it for 1 hour without any positive result I
decide to reinstall LM 8.0, copying /home/ to another driver to restore it
after reinstall. And now my linux box works properly.
Any of you has any idea of what happen?
Or how to repair it if it occurs again?
Thanks.
