Cannot Logout from guest while running from LiveCD
« on: May 16, 2010, 09:04:19 PM »
I have been working to get my sound to work.  After getting it to work I cannot logout.  I have tried using the new button on the far right and from the menu and neither allows me to logout.   Only way I have found is to just turn off the power supply to get out.

Is there a command line I should be able to enter in Konsole to logout?   I've tried "exit" but that doesn't work?

Also, I had to kill Kmix to get sound to work.  I was trying to logout so Kmix would come back on.  Is there a command line to get to Kmix to start again after I killed it ?   I've searched and tried "enable" but it didn't start Kmix.
AMD Athlon 64 3200, 2GB ram,  ~320 GB HD,  Video=ATI Radeon X300 SE (128mb) PCI-e
KDE     Kern  3.2.18-pclos2.a64

I used to think I knew a lot about computers until I started using Linux.  Now I feel my age...

Just kmix works for me.  ;D

If nothing else works, Ctrl+Alt+Backspace+Backspace will shutdown the X server, and after a few moments, you'll be back at the login screen. (That's hold down both the Ctrl and Alt keys, then press the Backspace key, twice)

Of what use be there for joy, if not for the sharing thereof?
