I don't want gnome, I want xfce4. I had to put a executable script in /etc/X11/xinit/ called 'Xclients' containing 'startxfce4' amongst other defaults. This is where the /etc/X11/gdm/Xsession script is looking for what to start (amongst other places). Thanks anyway! I also emailed this list about how to get rid of gconf & friends and I found that doing emerge -C gconf did, sort of, what I wanted (no running gconfd). Worked ok, until I tried emerge-ing another of those gnome apps (grip). So I emerged gconf again and installed grip. To avoid this I'll do a chmod 0000 on the /usr/libexec/gconfd-2. Does anyone foresee any problem with this? Best regards Peter K -- We Can Put an End to Word Attachments: http://www.fsf.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html -- [email protected] mailing list
