Must be a problem with GDM (you did say that was what you were using, correct?) because I use KDM when using RL5 and haven't had any problems. Is there a quick and dirty way for me to change to using GDM so I can check it out? There gotta be a way, I used to do it with Slackware all the time... Anyway, I thought that if I could try it out and (hopefully) get it to work alright here then maybe we could compare config files and figure out your problem... or provide more fuel for a bug report.
