Hi, I've just been experimenting with using the CygWin X-Window server on a Windows PC at work to connect to my Linux PC at home. Works great, but something funny just happened. I had been hoping to open a window with the whole GNOME desktop, but couldn't find anything in the documentation on how to do that, so I'd resigned myself to running individual apps in individual X-windows. But then I tried running Nautilus. In an XTerm window I typed "nautilus &" and a Nautilus file browser window opened up, but then a minute or so later a 2nd X-Window opened up displaying the desktop. Psychic Linux! So, is there a command that will run a desktop directly rather than going via that path? Ian
