In /home/username write a file with name .xinitrc (notice the dot) In it, write the following: #exec icevwm; #exec blackbox; Uncomment the one you want to have running at a given moment. Then, from console, write startx -- 1: vt8 & (the & will allow you to get back to the console, by putting the Xserver in the background, with Contr + Alt + F1, this way you will be able to see if anything is wrong) Or just plain startx Notice that vt8 sends you to virtual 8, leaving vt7 with kde running or wahtever you have. If you do just startx then you should have no kdm or gdm or *dm working. HTH. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
