Hi folks,

i've really got to do something about this problem:

>>
su init: getty repeating too quickly on port /dev/console, sleeping
Mar 30 13:45:33 su last message repeated 4 times
Mar 30 13:55:46 su last message repeated 18 times
Mar 30 13:59:44 su last message repeated 7 times
>>

something is not right here obviously.
I read some threads on the mail archive but no lights have
switched on for me yet.

Why does it say this and how do i fix it please?
( i'm running xdm ).

thanks,
Paul.
