Yeah I understand why the DisplaysPerHost defaults to one, and I dont want to change that. I was just looking for a way to get the terminal to boot after getting hung due to a power failure, hard reset,etc. As for the problem being redhat 8, I doubt it--I've had the problem once in a while ever since I installed my fisrt ltsp server which was about two years ago. I dont know why everybody thinks rh8 is such a -bad monster- or whatever. It does have a few things I dont like, but it is still linux under the hood. -Jeff > On Wed, 2003-01-15 at 19:23, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >> I guess you could change the DisplaysPerHost=1 to DisplaysPerHost=2 in >> gdm.conf >> This will solve the problem, but I found that using RedHat 8 had all >> sorts of little > niggles that were taking up too much of my time when i could have been > teaching.
