you don't mention how your starting X, is it via display manager(does X automatically come up when you boot?) or do you run 'startx'? For me I put the name of the window manager(afterstep in my case) in ~/.xinitrc e.g. echo "exec `which afterstep`" >~/.xinitrc for KDE the usual command is 'startkde' so echo "exec `which startkde`" >~/.xinitrc for gnome I think the command is usually 'gnome-session' so echo "exec `which gnome-session`" >~/.xinitrc the end result would be if you cat ~/.xinitrc you would see 1 line: exec /usr/bin/afterstep (in the case of afterstep) some people like to use the ~/.xsession file(I think thats it), I use xinitrc out of habbit(been using it since '96) nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
