Hi -- I'm not sure my message to Davida got through, but someone else's with similar advice did. I *have* done this in order that a museum floor kiosk could boot straight to the user interface. In the /etc/init.d section i simply added a script in which the relevant line was su - kiosk -c startx & It works beautifully. Cheers, judith ************ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxchix.org
