Hi Alug: tty1 has hung in minicom; I have removed the lockfile and stopped the minicom process but have now been left with the image and a flashing cursor and I can't communicate at all with that console.

You could try restarting the getty for that console. do a "ps ax | grep tty1" and kill that process. I think that init should restart it for you, if not do something like "/sbin/getty 38400 tty1". That might work....? -- ()= | Toby Jaffey : pkl.net/~trj //\ | "When I think back on all the crap I learnt in high school, it's a v_/_ | wonder I can think at all" - Paul Simon
