To quote Homer: D'OH!

Have I actually been over-thinking this? Is the only thing I have to do is press Ctrl+Alt+F1 (or F2, F3, or F4), and there's my root access to the system?

The DCOP Errors are still peculiar, though. I'll see if just switching to superuser mode clears this up and get back to you.

I'd still like to hear any theories anyone might have, however.

Thanks,

Tracy
