Thanks again Kaj. I looked for this in the menus but couldn't find it. The closest I have is System --> Configuration --> KDE --> System --> Login Manager, which appears to be set up correctly. I did get in a bit of a tangle with KDE during the upgrade though. I had KDE3.1 with Mandrake 9.2 previously, but I failed to remove KDE before the upgrade, which I should have done apparently. So after the upgrade I had both KDE3.1 and 3.2 stuff. I then removed everything to do with KDE (urpme -a kde) and reinstalled only the 3.2 apps. Is there something else I should have done to clean up the mess? Thanks again, Ed. -- Edward K.J. Chadwick PhD.
