Hi All
Has anyone gotten Xbanner to work on 5.1? I've installed it on Slackware, Caldera, and even SuSE 4.4, but now I'm baffled. The lines in the files in /etc/X11/xdm are all in their places and Xbanner even comes up in the background when I call it from the command line, but it won't come up with xdm!
Any ideas? yours, Andy

Well look. Here goes andy replying to himself AGAIN :) So in /etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0 there's a line that says # not reached and guess where xbanner was? that's right andy, after that. brilliant. Now I got the extra coolest login screen ever! Course I still dont know why it doesn't "get reached". Must be the "exec /usr/X11R6/bin/xconsole -geometry 480x130-0-0 \ -daemon -notify -nostdin -verbose -exitOnFail". But why? -- yours, Andy -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
