Yes they are. gdm a lot more so than kdm (I chucked gdm because I thought it was even too slow on my 3GHz Athlon). > After running the window manager the ?dm's don't do nothing more > than stay in the memory till You finish Your xsession. Actually they will be swapped out, so after the actual X session starts, they won't consume any valuable RAM. Anyway, I agree with your advice: Use xdm, or no desktop manager at all. --Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
