GDM runs from an entry in /etc/inittab, not from an "rc" script. You should have these two lines in /etc/inittab: # Run xdm in runlevel 5 x:5:respawn:/etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon So if you have a need to restart X, do "telinit 3 ; telinit 5" and that will stop and start the gdm process. > thanks, > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos -- Ron Loftin reloftin@xxxxxxxxxxxx "God, root, what is difference ?"
