Hi,
mickey-mouse, my sun, is now stuck in an infinite loop of displaying
the login screen, displaying a login failed message, and then
redisplaying the login screen.
Prior to that, "hit any key to start" was not responding to any
key. When I moved the mouse around, the cursor on the screen moved,
though. We did ^p a couple of times to try to fix things, but we
didn't do it the thousand or so times that it has displayed the login
screen now.
This is actually the second time in the past week or so that it hasn't
responded when at the "hit any key" screen. Last time, I rebooted the
machine and that fixed it.
I'm leaving it in its current looping state in case anyone wants to do
anything with it. If you don't, though, please let me know!
Thanks,
Carla
