Yes, eg cd /etc/X11/gdm ll /etc/X11/gdm/*gdm.conf mv gdm.conf gdm.conf.suspect cp factory-gdm.conf gdm.conf telinit 3 telinit 5 The ll on my box shows # ll /etc/X11/gdm/*gdm.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20987 May 23 2005 /etc/X11/gdm/factory-gdm.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20987 May 23 2005 /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf ie, the "factory" version is just a copy of what on my box is an unmodified gdm.conf. I am hoping you will see that your gdm.conf is dated from when you installed your theme, which will suggest replacing it might have some effect. -Andy
