how do I fix xserver remotely?
during an install on my parents pc I chose wrong xserver "fbdev" because I
didnt know there video card at the time. since then I found out it was s3
savage.
First I was locked out because of root password problem. fixed now with help
from this list :-)
Their pc is running knoppix live-cd ( so she can access internet) while I sort
this out. I will need to log in ssh ( not a problem did that earlier) and try
to fix x by editing file and hopefully when she reboots after removing
knoppix cd, gdm will start.
any clues would be helpful
thanks
