Well, removing GNOME just to use a different desktop environment does not sound like a good solution. After all, you might want to run GNOME applications. Omer, sorry, I don't know Debian (or GNOME, for that matter) way of doing things very well. However, I am guessing that if you grep the files under /etc/X11 for (g|k|x)dm you should be able to get a clue. On RedHat systems (yeah, I know, not necessarily the same, but I have no Debian around to check) there is /etc/X11/prefdm that does the choice of display manager in a somewhat smart way, with fallbacks etc. Along the way, it sources /etc/sysconfig/desktop (that does not exist unless you create it) that specifies your preferred desktop environment. You should be able to specify what you want in a similar manner. -- Oleg Goldshmidt | p...@goldshmidt.org _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
