Is there a way, with xdm (or gdm or some other login display manager) to display the output of a program running in the background, say gkrellm or top? Similar to how the console is displayed?
I have a system that froze on the login screen and the clients looked at it and saw the login screen and assumed the machine was running (none of them have logins on the debian box) . . . they asked for an easy way to determine if it was running, as if it's going to hang every day or so . . . So, if I could give them the pretty gkrellm monitors on the xdm login screen, they'd think that was really kewl . . . madmac -- Doug MacFarlane [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
