I use kde every day, and I don't have a kdmrc file. You can start kde several ways. One way is to login as root and type "kdm" at the prompt. Another is to edit /etc/ttys the way the Handbook describes. (You can read that yourself.) Another way is to use an xinitrc file. (That's in the Handbook as well.) The reason kdm can't create its pid file is most likely because you're trying to start it under your account instead of root. > > gary > > PS: what is the startup for exec'ing gnome?? echo 'gnome_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf That's in the Handbook as well. -- Paul Schmehl, Senior Infosec Analyst As if it wasn't already obvious, my opinions are my own and not those of my employer. ******************************************* Check the headers before clicking on Reply.
