i am using gnome/enlightenment from the suse 6.2 cd. whenever i startx and i get into xwindows, there seems to be multiple eterms spawned - one on top of the other. what's happening here? i use gnome-session to execute the windowmanager. does this have something to do with this problem? ____________________________________ Mac Q.

In KDE I'm in the habit of clicking on the Konsole button. I guess it's also called Terminal Emulation. It's easy to set fonts and such. What's the difference between this and an xterm? Just curious. On Mon, 17 Jan 2000, S.Toms wrote:
