I was trying to get GDM to boot since I kept getting an error when executing "/usr/local/bin/kdm -nodaemon" xterm on secure". So I edited the ttyv8 file manually with "ee", by replacing "off" with "on".
After I did; I was unable to boot into KDE or even the prompt so I could correct my error. I get stuck with this ugly gray login box with a big black X on it that states "FreeBSD: welcome to gateway.2wire.net", on an even uglier "white" background that asks me to long in.
Although once I login, I can't do anything. The keyboard just beeps when any key is pressed, and there is no mouse. I'm also unable to shutdown or reboot so I have to hold the power button on my pc until it shuts down.
I Just wanted to know if there is a way to salvage this, or will I have to reinstall FreeBSD from scratch again? Does anyone know of a solution or am I pretty much screwed?
P.S. I'm new to BSD...:r
