zen-mini gnome freezes after using synaptic
« on: April 25, 2010, 06:13:55 AM »
Problem with zen.mini gnome
It is brilliant and to be commended. However:
I have installed it on USB external 250 gig drive. partitions / swap,
usr, var, and home single user.

My machine: intel pentium 4... 3 giga hertz, one gig ram.

It installs without a problem, and runs perfectly.
If I shut down and reboot it is without fault.

Problem: if I run synaptic and install say cup for instance everything
goes fine, it installs and works.

Now if I shut my computer down and then reboot, it will go fine until it
reaches the log in gui. The login screen is asking for user name and password, the curser is blinking in the user name box,
but now the keyboard and mouse are frozen. Period.

Reboot same problem. Reinstall use synaptic and the same problem occurs.

So until I solve this problem it is not unusable.

Can anyone help out?

keep smiling.
