That means at boot it will go to the graphical login (for kde or gnome or...) and then automaticly log in as a particular user. There is a way to change it in KDE, but I'm not sure the exact process, so you can edit the file "/etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf" Look for the "Timed login" section. Here is what mine looks like (the first entry being the important one) TimedLoginEnable=false TimedLogin= TimedLoginDelay=30 Once set to false, on boot, yiou should be presented with a graphical login that waits indefinately for valid userid & password. -- Pete Nesbitt, rhce -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
