Hi all just got back my AOA110-Aw (linpus) from Acer after having a warranty mainboard and display replacement. When i boot it up it comes up with a whole list of messages...(typed verbatim as i cant do screenshots) [code]Launching a SCIM daemon with Socket frontend Loading simple Config module Creating backend (xfce4-session:715): Gtk-WARNING ** cannot open display: :0.0 Loading socket FrontEnd module ... Starting SCIM as daemon ... Launching a SCIM process with x11... Loading socket config module ... Failed to load x11 FrontEnd module. Failed to launch SCIM udevd[751]: add_to_rules: invalid rule '/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules:12' intel_rng: FWH not detected pciehp: Device 0000:02:00.0 already exists at 2:0, cannot hot-add pciehp: Cannot add device 0x2:0 pciehp: Device 000:03:00.0 already exists at 3:0, cannot hot-add pciehp: Cannot add device 0x3:0 acip: starting up acip: 1 rule loaded [/code] It sits there. If i then hit enter i get [code][1]+ Done startxfce4 [user@localhost ~]$[/code] ie the bash prompt The device has nothing i dont mind losing. However i'd like to know how to recover it to a starting point of the fluffy linpus gui any help appreciated. If it means anything, its got an 8gig SSD and 1.5gig memory, and i have a second machine (AOA150-Aw) that i could use to supply any files. cheers P.S. As mentioned, the machine is fresh back from Acer - it had never been successfully booted before being sent off for repair so id not had chance to set the root password. consequently i cannot su to root from the shell as it prompts for password that i do not know.! any easy way of reseting it all?
