Pek has a 'start' script that runs at...er...start, so you can run your dockapps, etc. but if you go the .xintitrc --> startx way, you can do cool stuff like: #Pekwm xset m 50/10 3 & (sets mouse sensitivity) xset b off (turns off that annoying beep) xset +fp $HOME/.fonts & (no exp necessary here) xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 7 6 4 5" (enables the side buttons on MS mouse) ...and if yer goin' into KDE (bleh), all you need to do is type 'kde'. -- JoeHill / RLU #282046 / www.freeyourmachine.org 20:12:17 up 86 days, 20:02, 5 users, load average: 0.18, 0.37, 0.37 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "Behind every great fortune is a crime." -- Balzac
