I'm sure there are loads on sources online to tell me how to do this, but i can't find a one that works for me, for whatever reason. I'm running Mandrake 7.2 with kernel 2.2.18 on a compaq LTE 5380 laptop. I've got a pent133 with 80 meg of ram and a 2 gig hdd. My problem is that KDE 2 that comes with mandrake 7.2 is so huge my ram is almost all gone as soon as KDE loads up. So i want to try blackbox. I've got it downloaded and extracted and all that fun stuff, and i've done all the .configure things i could find to do. but how do i set up X to load Blackbox instead of KDE? i can't get it to load for the life of me. If anyone has a link or howto or anything, i would appreciate it. thanx _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
