The advantage of using gdmflexiserver is that it is dynamic (only invoke new X servers and greeters when required) and it integrates nicely into things like xscreensaver's locking functionality. You can set up multiple X servers manually, sure, but that's much further away from what XP has, and 'normal' users won't be looking to set things up like that. - Jeff -- GUADEC 2005: Stuttgart, Germany http://2005.guadec.org/ I must be getting old...
