Beto, I took your advice and solved the mess as you suggested. I just deinstalled both mozilla and firefox and symlinked /usr/X11R6/bin/linux-opera to /usr/X11R6/bin/mozilla and to /usr/X11R6/bin/firefox. Thanks, Guido ___

Hi, I have been reading man pages, the freebsd manual, kde.org (now offline?) pages, I've been experimenting with different setups, but I do not manage to setup X as I wish. I have a server called beastie, and a desktop called wodan. Both machines start kdm on ttyv8 and allow for local login.
