Thanks, also thanks to Peter Finderup Lund for his assistance. I couldn't get xikbd to work (Sigfaults after reading /etc/xikbdrc), but got a similar program called epistropy to work. I'm now able to start a program on the local machine by pressing a key sequence. However, I'm not able to do so until after I have logged in. Watching the epistropy process using strace, I can see that nothing happens if I push any of my defined key sequences while I'm watching the login screen. I put the the computer in /etc/X0.hosts so I have no problem opening an connection to the display. I don't know much about X, so I assume what I'm experiencing is the correct behaviour - but is there a way I could make epistrophy (or any other X client for that matter) recieve my key sequence while I'm looking at the Display Manager's login screen? (Through XDMCP). The X client is running on the same computer as the X server, ie. the local computer. --- -- �yvind Hallsteinsen, HIST AITeL -- _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
