FC6?, I'm using Debian, maybe some KDE silliness though. Xterm can't be the same because it doesn't offer pre-defined "sessions" like konsole does; starting konsole or xterm provides the proper environment (.bashrc is read), starting a konsole session does not. Most of my sessions are started via the "Terminal Sessions" menu in Kicker. It is possible to work around the problem by defining a session to execute "bash -i -c someprg" instead of "someprg", but that results in an extra bash process (bash->bash->someprg instead of bash->someprg) which is just as silly as Konsole session programs behaving differently depending on whether KDE is started via kdm or startx, imo. Everything works as it is supposed to when I do "startx startkde ...", so I've disabled kdm from starting at boot and have the following in my .bash_profile: alias kde='startx /usr/bin/startkde -- :1 -dpi 100 &>temp/kde-log &' Great for the local box, doesn't help when logging in to KDE via xdmcp though. - Bruce p.s. - what URL did you read the report from (I'm a little surprised to see a response from a FC user)? ------------------------------------------------------- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
