A simple visit to www.rpmfind.net and you can add xfce, etc. quite easily; just pick a Rehat type rpm compatible with your PC (I can't use 686, for example). sfce went in with no complaints. Once you have a new wm installed, you need to update /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession and /etc/kde/kdmrc to make the new session type available. Let me know if you need help. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area WWTLRD? - FreeBSD 4.4 + xfce + sylpheed _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list Archives, Digests, etc at http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
