Hi,
If I start XWin with the following parameters, :0 -rootless -query hostname
I get the Redhat login dialog box, which appears with NO background.
This is good.
Then when I log in, whether I select GNOME or KDE, the KDE/GNOME desktop
background always appears.
Is there a way to prevent this?
I'd like to have the Gnome or KDE taskbar and start menu, but not a desktop
like it does.
And even if I configure KDE/GNOME to have NO desktop, they both still want
to at least draw a color background.
Anyone?
