[/list]My screen got locked in the gentoo livegui image when i was doing a step. I dont know what was the password for the default user and i cant switch tty consoles. Im on a samsung chromebook 4 and ctrl alt top keys do not work which acts as ctrl alt fx. I cant do reisub because the first part which is alt f10 r justs instantly reboots instead of unrawing the keyboard. So what am i supposed to do now?

Both user and password as gentoo ?

I had to reset with power and refresh key. my disks were corrupted but recovered with fsck. I set a password through konsole to set to gentoo user.
