I had to manually edit XFree86-Config-4 and every time I run XFDrake it edits the file back to its old settings. But at the end of configuring X with XFDrake, it asks if I want the computer to boot into X. So right now the computer isn't set to run X at boot. I have to log on as root, then run gdm. Is that what Mandrake does, just starts gdm at boot? Should I just ad a script to rc5.d to make starting gdm the last thing it does at boot?

I got it in 27 hours on a 144k idsl pulling all 3 isos at once. It usually takes me that long for one iso at a time. Try giving that a try. -- Chris Frederick <cdf123 at cdf123.com> _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
