I beleive (but I'm not positive) that I was stilled logged in for the first time as my new user. I suppose it's possible that it's only that way till the end of the first login, or the beginning of the second? I don't know why that would be though. unfortunately, it's so much of a pain to install this machine (only 512MB, need to ssh in, set display, and install from a remote Xserver.) that I don't know when/if I'll be able to test to see if I can reproduce it. I know I didn't do it myself. -Kyle > sarah > *** >> Is that by design? if so why? >> >> -Kyle >> >>
