I can try that, but I actually have been having other issues since then.
Currently, the only way to get X11 to work is to run under recovery mode
then run "init 5". Otherwise, after a long loading time, it goes to what
apears to be a blank terminal with only a blinking cursor(The _ style).
Nothing responds, not even a system reboot command issued by the
motherboard(IE Pressing the power button on the front, but holding it
does shut it off hard). I haven't really had time to play with it, but I
think pretty much all my problems stem from my motherboard. Aside from
it, I have no unsual hardware.

I have had the remote unplugged and still had the no boot problem. I
don't know if the two are related, the no boot and the freezing
X11(Could just be freezing earlier).

Has 6.10 updated to the newer kernels to the repositories yet? If so,
how would I go about adding them after I install it without having
network support(Network and audio need the newer kernel)?

I am actually a long time supporter of Linux, but I have never been able
to migrate from Windows to Linux because of problems like this, and the
lack of commercial game support. I was actually running a 7 day test of
Linux on my desktop when these problems happened, but when I went back
to Windows after the 7 days were up, I discovered that my Windows was
failing, which doesn't surprise me that I just discovered it then seeing
as how I reboot about once every 3 months, and the problem had to do
with booting. So I ended up spending about 3 week in Linux, I was
actually right at home by the end of it, except for having to boot in
recovery mode and init 5'ing. I just missed games a bit too much to stay
in Linux.
