Hi,
I am trying to fine tune my xinitrc file and am running into an annoying
problem. The last line in it which was there when I intially installed
freebsd 2.2.2, brings up an xterm window which is called login. This appears
whenever I start x and to exit x I have to type exit in this xterm window.
If I delete this line my X server will not start. Does this line have to be
there or is there a way to get rid of it. I will attach a copy of my xinitrc
file.
Thanks Alot
