Note: Ctrl-Alt-Backspace will kill the X session under the default setup. After which, KDM should respawn. However, this is rarely what you want to do, since it can muck up your session management. What you probably want to do is map a hot key sequence in X, that'll perform a logout. I'm remembering that Sawfish has an easy way to setup such key sequences... You almost certainly don't want to mess with inittab for such functionality... -- Eric G. Miller <egm2@jps.net> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
