FYI. I got the RPM up in the box. But it's just lying there. :( I tried a few *trick* to get it running but it didn't work out unfortunately. I'm waiting for somebody to actually send me some suggestions. :) As you mentioned, Fedora seemed to have changed a bunch of stuff which makes it confusing at first sight to tweak the files and get entrance up in place of GDM. Eventually I will get some suggestions if I wait a little longer. There are always people trying stuff out there and sending me recipes. It boils down to saying "Sorry dude, I've no clue either!". And at the moment I do not have the time to hack it. --- With kind regards, Didier. ------------ Yum/apt repository for DR17/EFL: http://sps.nus.edu.sg/~didierbe Didier F.B Casse PhD candidate, Singapore Synchrotron Light Source (SSLS) National University of Singapore. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
