It works OK when I run it from root's account as a non-daemon process. Then I get the login prompt and can use X as both users and root. But as soon as I change the /etc/ttys xdm part to on, (and run kill -HUP 1) The screen goes graphic and then starts blinking for ever, until I remove the on part of xdm and do the kill... thing again. It is something obvious to anybody I guess, but not to me. -- __o regards, Gunnar ---_ \<,_ email: flygt@sr.se ---- (_)/ (_) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
