That ACT Y thing is probably what I missed. Didn't see any refrence to that
in the man pages.

If it doesn't is there some where I can put it so it will run it on startup?

I don't understand that sentence, are you refering to recompiling?
I haven't the slightest clue how to do that, hopefully its already
included :)

Oh yeah, I remember seeing that before, but had forgotten about it.
I'm pretty dissapointed with the X shell that RedHat 5.0 comes
with, can I get others? So far the best look for it has been
something called Litestep, but its kind of annoying too.

Ugh, you'd think someone would write a decent gui for it,
I put up with command lines long enough with DOS.
Actually, after seeing how X windows runs and the total
lack of UI uniformity I'm inclined to dump linux altogether
and go install NT.
Not that a command line interface isn't perfectly usable,
I just happen to prefer a GUI (personal prefrence, not
a suitable subject to start a debate over).

Works for me, nothing useful on it, only ran for 4 days.
