Hi..sorry to the multimedia guys, if they mind. I got bored. >>:-> Anyone need to spice up their desktop or Xlogin window? http://resnet.uoregon.edu/dwhite/fbsd-desktops.html Submissions/better ones would be cool. A Xlogin window of the day would be pretty neat ;-) Use something like this to select it... xv -root -quit `ls ~dwhite/desktops | random | head -1` Slap into /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0 and off you go. Or run from /etc/daily.... PICTURE = `ls ~dwhite/desktops | random | head -1` rm /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/set_login.sh echo "#!/bin/sh" > /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/set_login.sh echo "xv -root -quit $PICTURE" >> /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/set_login.sh #Xsetup_0 ./set_login.sh xconsole ..... Oh wow, time for some caffiene :-) Doug White | University of Oregon Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major
