Mark, Went into xinitrc and commented out "twm" and "xterm"s. replaced with 'exec gnome-session', runlevel 5 from inittab and I'm doing great. I think I'll try upgrading the 2.4.7-10 kernel and see where that goes. Also playing around with the Mozilla Firefox browser and firewalls. The only problem I have now is that the text appears a little rough -- not tight and smooth -- as if there were not enough pixels or whatever. But thanks again for your help. many blessing to you and yours. cole -----Original Message----- From: xfree86-admin@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:xfree86-admin@xxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Ragland, Cole Sent: Thursday, September 16, 2004 9:32 PM To: 'xfree86@xxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: RE: Redhat 7.2 Xwindows Issues on Pavilion N5425 Mark, I installed 4.4.0 and its working great except that after logging in via the "windows" interface, i recieve an Xclient as opposed to a gnome desktop. Maybe when i said yes to overwrite config files, that messed me up?? Got any ideas, please let me know. thanks very much cole -----Original Message----- From: xfree86-admin@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:xfree86-admin@xxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Mark Vojkovich Sent: Thursday, September 16, 2004 3:03 PM To: 'xfree86@xxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: RE: Redhat 7.2 Xwindows Issues on Pavilion N5425 The binaries from XFree86: ftp://ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/4.4.0/ don't really have an upgrade option. They do a complete install. There might be other options available from your Linux distribution, however. But I don't know much about those. Mark.
