How do you boot, to a graphical login or text mode (ie. runlevel 3)? If it's text mode, open a console, su root, and type "cd" to get to your home dir. Now create a file called .xinitrc and add a line executing the WM or desktop you want, ie. exec fluxbox, etc. This is NOT recommended. You should really always log in as a user, then perform only specific tasks as root when required. -- Joehill Registered Linux user #282046 Homepage: http://nodex.sytes.net ************************************************************** "Filtering out noise is one way to get a clearer signal." ************************************************************** 20:22:46 up 27 min, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.02, 0.00 _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
