I understand this suppresses kdm from running in the background?
My guess is that prefdm is set to run at runlevel 5. Is your initdefault set to 5? If you want X over VNC but don't want X on the local console, then you might want to leave the initdefault at 3 (or whatever it is set to) but set prefdm to start at 3 instead of 5. -- Mike Ossmann, Tarantella/UNIX Engineer/Instructor Alternative Technology, Inc. http://www.alttech.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------
