kdm has a nice way of doing this automatically if you are using X, but if your not, I think there is a key binding to ctr-alt-delete that allows you to gracefully reboot. There was a message about this a few days ago. Apparently you have to change shutdown -r to shutdown -h somewhere. I forget, maybe you could check the archives or wait for someone more knowledgeable to reply. -- -Peace kid Scott Henson [EMAIL PROTECTED] "God's the ultimate playa, so naturally He's going to have some haters," rapper Ice Cube said.
