I reset ->it each time I start Linux from the red background. ->How can I set the new settings as the default option so I do not need to ->change the background each time I start the machine? ->I am a total newbe to Linux, although a Windows and Mac user for many years. Well, if your seeing a red background then your logged in as root. One shouldn't log in as root because that account has full administrative rights to the entire system and one could accidently destroy data or the OS if the wrong command were executed by accident. Please start YaST2 and create yourself a user account. It's pretty self explaintory. Once this is created you can login as a normal user and you should be able to customize your desktop as you see fit. -- Ben Rosenberg ---===---===---===--- mailto:ben@whack.org Tell me what you believe..
