Folks, I was asked yesterday, and spent about an hour trying to help, how to turn off the file manager in gnome when you start up as root. Yes, I know you shouldn't be running an X as root due to security problems, but this particular computer is isolated on a secure network inside a locked room and the network isn't connected to anything outside that room, so there really isn't a problem with that. However, the user gets a bit fried by the message that he shouldn't be running the file manager as root at each login. We managed to turn off the file manager, but not the warning message! Any help would be greatly appreciated. I don't have the specifics of the computer (they have to shoot me if I ask), but the OS is RedHat 8.x.
