I'm not *quite* so lazy; I just created an alias for 'startx' which is just 'x', so once I log in, I just type 'x' and enter and there we are. Funny, I have Sylpheed and Firefox start automatically too, and the coolest thing is with Pekwm, they start on workspaces 2 and 3 (love those autoprops!) while a term opens on workspace 1. -- JoeHill RLU #282046 / www.orderinchaos.org 12:14:43 up 8 days, 17:38, 6 users, load average: 2.00, 1.66, 1.53 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "The US is our trading partner, our neighbour, our ally and our friend... and sometimes we'd like to give them such a smack!" -- Rick Mercer
