Install the latest Xsun patches and add "-clients 1024" to the Xsun command line (if using the standard login screen, copy /usr/dt/config/Xservers to /etc/dt/config/Xservers, then edit the last line in /etc/dt/config/Xservers). -- Dan Espen E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 444 Hoes Lane Room RRC 1C-214 Phone: (732) 699-5570 Piscataway, NJ 08854 -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
