Hi Justin, Did you receive a solution to your console login. I get the same thing when I use it. As soon as I try to type at the prompt, or login, it fades to a blue screen.

When I did it, though, i only saw the console for about a second before it faded into an aqua blue screen and the only way I could get out was to do a hard reboot. Anyone know why? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (Darwin) iD8DBQFBZfCJSdn966pqU1gRAibJAJ42N2qs7EO+EuitwPOrWt1Im9g6SgCgrCmh 9ek/YyjiJccg2XPDPW6M6JY= =1QZs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ X-Unix mailing list X-Unix at listserver.themacintoshguy.com http://listserver.themacintoshguy.com/mailman/listinfo/x-unix
