I guess the process can be started - but by the time it is ready for prime time then any daemons that need to work should have been tested to work without the need for any /etc/sysconfig/... files - just by the way what then out of interest is the replacement for a /etc/sysconfig/desktop file that defines which login manager should be the default (and which is not there by default)? Can KDM then be started when X starts and not GDM without the use of the above file? -- mike c -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
