edit /etc/inittab and change your default run level from 5 to 3 this way you boot to a text login but keep your networking stuff. When you need/want to use 'x', then just type init 5 at command line and it will take you to your display manager and let you login to whatever 'x' environment you have installed... KDE, GNOME, WindowMaker.. mike... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
