Cant login as user in vmware image
« on: February 14, 2010, 06:53:50 AM »
I couldnt find much help on google about this so Ill ask here. The rockbox vmware image suddenly isnt letting me login anymore. Root works but not user. As soon as I click ok it resizes the window briefly then returns to the login screen.

When I could log in previously, Ive been trying to compile the 3.5 stable build but I got some permission errors so i did the
Code: [Select]
chmod 777 * -R
as recommended. I also did
Code: [Select]
usermod -G audio user
because I was getting seg faults when trying to play in the simulator in a different build.

But now I cant login anymore, any ideas how to correct it? I really want to test the multifont patch!

I checked the log, heres the section that is logged when I try logging on:

Code: [Select]
Feb 12 22:27:09.078: vcpu-0| VMMouse: CMD Received 0x000000f5 with 4 words of unread data!
Feb 12 22:27:09.078: vcpu-0| VMMouse: CMD Disable

Feb 12 22:27:13.515: mks| MKS switching absolute mouse on

Help appreciated.

Root works but not user.

login as root and then in a terminal:

Code: [Select]
passwd user
will let you change the password for said user
