What you will need to do is to log out of the x session and kill speech-dispatcher and you should be good to go. The only way to not come back into the graphical desktop manager is to not use one and just use the startx command and you will be back in the console. Hope this helps. -- Doug Smith: Special Agent S.W.A.T Spiritual Warfare and Advanced Technology Forever serving our LORD and SAVIOUR, JESUS CHRIST. _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
