With xdm (much ligher weight than kdm or gdm) you only get the equivalent of a startx operation (i.e., you must have hard coded a window manager). wdm supplies the missing functionality in xdm. The advantage over kdm or gdm is that you don't have to install (and load) kde or gnome to get a flexible graphical login manager. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area Athlon-XP gentoo 1.4_rc2 kde 3.1 ___ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
Scripting KDE Menu Additions and Removals
Hi Folks, Long time no post. I have run Redhat for a while but RH8.0 seems to require a lot of extra additions as I mostly use Linux as an admin/chat/hack system not an office/games system which is what I think RH are aiming at with RH8.0. I have switched to Mandrake 9.0 and was wondering if anyone can point me to how to bash script menu modifications... I like KDE3.0 but want to make my menu 'just the stuff I need, nothing that I don't' but as each reinstall means this has to be done again and Menuedit MenuDrake take a longtime to use... so I am wondering about installing/moving menu items via script Any pointers would be much appreciated James McD ___ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users

Re: New Step
i don't think this was intentional. do you happen to remember what the filename was for your version? we're still in the midst of the reorg, so its possible that it was accidentally, or temporarily moved.

Re: New Step
My Iomega Clik info was replaced. Although I see no problems with the replacement, I did not think mine was so very bad. OK, maybe a bit KDE-centric, but no one ever complained or asked for a less GUI version. It is not really a problem. I was just surprised at the change.

I love this- it begs one to actually think about things- "In Space no-one can hear you scream!" Do ideas die? Does the internet offer some form of immortality through files stashed at random around the world, thus ensuring a real thread of history? Please, can we have more discussion? I'd love the post-work, stressed-out palliative of reading, thinking (and perhaps replying).. Syllogism. Major Premise: All things that live will die. Minor Premise: SXS Steps are alive. Conclusion: SXS Steps will die. (Afterthought: will thay scream on dying, and will they be heard?) I think we should be told!

New graphical login manager wdm
FYI, A user on another group pointed out this package, and I like it. Wdm is based on xdm, but it allows you complete choice of Session type, reboot or shutdown, etc. from the gui login panel. The home page is : http://voins.program.ru/wdm/ I'm using wdm-1.22 from a gentoo ebuild, but there is a bug in pam support which the author will fix soon and release 1.22.1. If you need his workaround for 1.22, let me know. BTW, there is a gentoo ebuild for wdm, but it hasn't been released because of work on the gentoo 1.4_final release. If you need the ebuild, cf. gentoo bugzilla #15660.
