I've searched around for existing documentation on doingthis configuration, but I've found nothing. Please send me a link ifyou know where I can find this information or include it directly ina relpy.Note that I have tried the following statement: echo 'exec gnome-session' > .xsession But, when I execute 'xdm' and login, I am presented with the login screen again (thus, I am unable to log in). --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
