Have a look at the "default run level" thread on this list, where someone wrote in assuming that changing the default run level was the way to achieve this, and was told that this is not so and given several other methods. As nate remarked, your description of the original situation sounds a bit nonstandard. The usual situation is more accurately described if you add after "using Alt + F7", "having first run startx from a console". Are you describing the standard situation loosely, or describing a non-standard situation accurately? Pigeon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
