Chris and I talked a little about this. On my 9.1 system, every time I start a new konsole it creates a new user, however, when I "exit" the konsole, it removes the additional user. It is not doing that on his system, it is leaving the user session active even after he exits from the konsole. I don't think that is normal behavior, at least, it is not normal on my 9.1 system. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
