Thanks everyone for the help. Now(of course) I have two more
questions.
(i use KDE by the way)
1)Assuming I'm ready to reboot, is there a keyboard command
to reboot all together?(avoiding the GUI logout->GUI Login Screen-> Choosing "reboot"
method)
Isn't Ctrl+Alt+Del a little harsh when
it comes to rebooting, or is it safe?
2) I have created a new user using userconf, leaving
the default permissions on the account. The problem is
I can't log in to X with this new account. After entering
the correct username/password it attempts to fire up the
desktop, but then quickly hangs and sends me back to the log
in prompt.(unlike the shaky login prompt thing when you give a bad
password, it appears to begin to load the desktop by changing the background color. no
icons though)
Do you all think this a permissions thing or a default display setting that X doesn't
like?
Do I need to give the user account some privilege for this runlevel?
I inhereted this machine so I don't know it's history.
(just for kicks i added this new user to the root group, hoping it was a permission
thing, but that didn't change anything)
Should I be asking this on like a redhat-clueless-newbie@list or is this list Ok?
Thanks again,
Eric Brown
