For instance - on a box I'm working on, I have a script that is: #! /bin/sh cd /root vncserver -geometry 1500x1100 -depth 16 -name ROJO :1 exit 0 # End options ...works fine for me - as it stands. ...now I did notice on another box I had recently that Gnome was having problems ASIDE from using VNC - that using it "locally" Gnome was mucking up left and right (logged in as root on that box); but after blowing out all the ~/root/.gnome* and ~/root/.gcon* files and folders, and letting Gnome recreate them, that I was back to having a nice stable Gnome again - both locally or via VNC... Have you done any updates or anything to your system? Have you run "up2date" (not that you're going to get anywhere with that in the next day or so); have you tried checking out what's causing gnome-settings-daemon to crash? -- Sat Aug 30 17:40:01 EST 2003 17:40:01 up 5 days, 7:26, 3 users, load average: 0.55, 0.61, 0.60 ----------------------------------------------------------------- | __ __ | illawarra computer services | | /-oo /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ----------------------------------------------------------------- linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1+ & RH 9 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-13mdk Cooker for i586 ----------------------------------------------------------------- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * Q: What is the difference between Texas and yogurt?
