On my new F16_64, set uo my XFCE desktop seccessfully. I then: created "/etc/sysconfig/desktop" conraining DESKTOP="XFCE" yum install switchdesk switchdesk XFCE set to boot to level 3 If I then run startx, the screen goes blank and nothing happens. Forthermore, if I then set the bootlevel to 5 and reboot, the system is very slow, and itself does another reboot before bringing up level 5. Thanks for your suggestions. Mike. -- Michael D.
