In Ubuntu. or at least 8.10 I can't find the inittab file to edit
whether or not I want graphical login. Plus I guess I would have to
freshen up on how to configure startx to load the window manager I
want....I believe it was the .xsession file in the home directory?
this is something I haven't done since my slackware days. course
ubuntu seems to have switched things around(god knows why) definitly
wouldn't be hard tho. I've done much more complex tasks. I just have
to figure out what ubuntu replaced those files with. But there was
mention of wmii. Anyone concur with this being a good replacement for
gdm on ubuntu 8.10? I've never actually heard of wmii before so its
new to me.
