I was going to try and reboot in single-user mode to see what difference that might make, but because the bluetooth keyboard wasn’t recognized before the window for requesting single-user had passed, I ended up in a regular reboot, and the problem has disappeared.  Or at least I was able to login.

I’ve had a USB drive keep ejecting itself unsafely yesterday, we’ll see if the reboot fixed that too….

I Need A Sharper Stick

Monday, January 11th, 2010

Got a couple strange problems at work that just keep refusing to yield to my usual methods of debugging.  I think I’ll see if I can’t find a sharper stick to poke them with.    Perhaps go for parallelism, use a pitch-fork.  It’s definitely not a job for a spoon smacking, that much is certain.  I’ve tried all the usual boiling-in-oil and stretching-on-the-rack already.
