It would for me. I've been tolerating a Xdm login for a few weeks (I knew enough *not* to install kdm or gdm when I installed Woody this time but I wasn't sure about xdm so left it in). And undecided whether to just uninstall xdm or whether that might break something else. >From this thread it looks like I can safely lose xdm... but an explicit option to do so would be reassuring. cr -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
