to load all your gnome settings, you should use gnome-settings-daemon. I have recently built an internet kiosk running galeon, using a custom gdm session (and deleting all others) #!/bin/sh # /etc/gdm/Sessions/Kiosk gnome-settings-daemon & galeon -f & exec /etc/X11/Xsession /usr/bin/icewm-gnome # EOF your gdm login screen has nothing to do with your user's settings, so just use the graphical greeter and write your own theme :-) greetings, -- Joris PS: is there anybody interested in a mini-howto? the kiosk is pretty secure with icewm restricting many window operations and no xterm on the box, and extremely robust mounting everything read-only and using tmpfs (auto-resizing ramdisk) for /tmp /var and /home -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
