I am one of the multitude that is conditioned to simply close all the startup clutter. I rarely ever read the SUSE Greeter... I think I looked at it once... a couple of years ago. now it's an automatic click to close. I am not the only one. This is essentially the exact same knee-jerk reaction I see from most new users I help get started with openSUSE. The desktop starts up and it's click to close everything so they can "see" what they've got in this new Linux thing.

This is a fantastic example of what the greeter needs to be. Simple, clear and something that everyone will look at... if only briefly... which is all it takes to spark interest. A box with a few hundred words is generally ignored. The simple graphic is so much more effective (a pain to translate though). OK, late now... but there's always 10.4 I guess. :-) C. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
