XDMCP with cygwin kill kdesktop
Hi list, I use cygwin to open xdmcp session on my post windows XP. I connect myself on a RHEL3 server. I use commande line : $ XWin -query server -rootless -once Just after login, I open terminal to kill process kdesktop in order to delete the red hat wallpaper. The result is a windows desktop with windows task bar and red hat task bar. I recently try open SLES9-SP3 xdmcp session with same parameters. I kill kdesktop and obtain the same result like RHEL3. However, when I move a SLES9 windows, SLES9 wallpaper reappears on my windows' windows. Is there a better way to delete the Linux wallpaper that to to kill kdesktop ? Or do you know the difference between RHEL3 and SLES9-SP3 (XFree86 and Xorg) that entrains reappears of SLES9 wallpaper ?

Re: XDMCP with cygwin kill kdesktop
Why don't you just run kicker on the linux box (in a linux terminal and inactive X server on the windows machine)? Instead of the whole startx script which run many other programs (relatively slow). kicker is the task bar of kde. Sorry, I'm french, I don't explain my problem very well. I want to delete the linux desktop for just see the linux task bar on windows desktop. I join a window capture to be clear.

Re: XDMCP with cygwin kill kdesktop
Thank you for reply. I find in last topic the way to display only kicker by running $ XWin -multiwindow -clipboard $ kdeinit +kicker But these launch kicker form cygwin platform, and I would like to access to my server application so to my server kicker. Can I write $HOME/.xinitrc in order to run only kicker ?

Well, you are starting kicker in cygwin, so no suprise here. If you want to start kicker on your linux computer you will have to use ssh or rsh. Remember to set DISPLAY if you are not using ssh tunnel. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
