tricky. if you have xdmcp open you can run Xnest -query ... and shoot that. otherwise try adding a commein in Xsetup (eg: /etc/kde3/kdm/Xsetup ) execute in the background a script that will sleep for a while, and then run xwd to make the screenshot. alternatively (less secure) put something like xhost +; into that same script, to allow access, and run xwd from another console. there should also be a way to get the login program to run on another X display (use Xnest to create one) greetings, martin. -- looking for a job doing pike programming, sTeam/caudium/pike/roxen training, sTeam/caudium/roxen and/or unix system administration anywhere in the world. -- pike programmer travelling and working in europe open-steam.org unix system- bahai.or.at iaeste.(tuwien.ac|or).at administrator (stuts|black.linux-m68k).org is.schon.org Martin Bähr http://www.iaeste.or.at/~mbaehr/
