It supports per-user switching between all of these: KDE, GNOME, > FVWM, Enlightenment, WindowMaker, or twm. I got caught on that. I have shared home directories, and when I upgraded from 5.x to 6.x I did so on one machine first. I then ran switchdesk to switch to a different desktop on the 6.x system, and discovered I had problems logging in on 5.x systems. Home directories are not the right place for system configuration information. -- Cheers John Summerfield Microsoft's most solid OS: http://www.geocities.com/rcwoolley/ Note: mail delivered to me is deemed to be intended for me, for my disposition.
