Basically, this is compiled into the Xserver. If you want to change it then start learning the Xfree86 sources. I doubt very much if Xfree86 will accept any patches to change it. Think of it as a tradition. There was an interview with Jim Gettys and one of the questions touched on this very subject. I could try to dig it up if anyone really wants me to try. As people have mentioned kdm does replace the background after a few seconds. - -- David Pashley [EMAIL PROTECTED] Nihil curo de ista tua stulta superstitione. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.0 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9kyc6YsCKa6wDNXYRArXuAJsEkirMtNrrClPbuhzFr/adLRpHogCgq7L+ GFaxtKn4LDcJlP1dUUC/9MM= =HK95 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
