So if that is the _solution_, why not try to automate it? Not tested, just a suggestion: Make this the last-1 line in ~/.xinitrc (or ~/.xsession depending on actual setup), before the "exec" call to the WM / DE, maybe like this: #!/bin/sh [ -f ~/.xmodmaprc ] && xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc xterm & xsetroot -solid rgb:3b/4c/7a xset b 100 1000 15 & xset r rate 250 30 & xset s off & xset -dpms & -> sudo /usr/local/etc/rc.d/dbus restart && sudo /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald restart exec wmaker It should "happen" when X is running, and it should be "back to normal" when the WM or DE is launched (and all background programs have fully started). -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
