I have successfully logged my explora into kdm on the linux box. Said box has an nvidia card using the proprietary nvidia driver and glx.
Mind you I haven't done it in ages, and kde has been upgraded recently so whether it still works I don't know. It'll require a major plugging/unplugging/depriving child of his compuer for an hour or so to try it again as I need his screen to test it. ummmmm surely your /etc/X11/XF86Config file shouldn't be used when logging in from a remote terminal? Isn't there a separate hierarchy for the configs for the ncd terminal? why would you use the nv or nvidia drivers for a terminal? -- confused of Victoria Street On Fri, 30 Jul 2004 11:29:01 +1200 Jim Cheetham <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > C.
