I can configure extra session types via KDE controll centre.
They then come up on the KDM graphical menu for login.
On red hat I then modified
/etc/X11/xdm/Xsession
and added a line for my newly installed window manager
saying if session is fluxbox, call fluxbox etc
HOWEVER I cant figure it

I was experimenting with firewall scripts, one of which was mason, the one
that as you use the internet it generates rules. I have since deleted all
these scripts, read up about iptables and am happy to DIY !!!
HOWEVER a bit of mason still seems to be hanging on

I am trying to upgrade my woody KDE to 3.0.4, Ive done this in the past with
red hat AOK but am having problems with debian.
My KDE is in /opt/kde3
My qt is in /opt/kde3/qt
I setup my variables with the following script ...
#! /bin/sh
KDEDIR=/opt/kde3
QTDIR=$KDEDIR/qt
PATH=$QTDIR/bin:$KDEDIR/b
Err I made a **?!?** mistake !!
I have deselected
libpng-dev
libpng2-dev
libpng2
libpng3
I haven't actually actioned it yet because the list of packages about to be
removed is 208 inc KDE etc ...
I have tried various combinations of the four libpngs, to no avail.
I currently have
libpng2
I had a problem, my windows 98SE crashed badly, no supprise there, and seemed
to corrupt debian on the next partition. I didn't think windows could access
any other partitions ?
I had to manually fsck the drive where it cleared a inode.
Am i right, this has deleted a file ???
Anyhow since
I have added window maker to my sessions manager, used the .deb package AOK
works a treat. I now have a wmaker option to boot into from kdm.
I also have fluxbox installed. I compiled it form source because I needed the
latest version. I added a session fluxbox from the KDE controll center. AOK
I use pppd with the dial on demand option, it works great but I need a way of
turning it on and off via pon/poff FROM the logged in user ...
To get this to work I have ...
chmod u+s /usr/sbin/pppdroot
chgrp dip /sbin/killall5
Sets up SUID for pppd
pppconfig
Setup users to use pon/poff .. puts u
I need to move my linux system from drive, /dev/hda to /dev/hdd
I know I will have to re-write lilo.conf
Apart from lilo, will the system work in a different hdX ??
Anyone had any experience ?? or done it ??
Thanks
