No, it's okay if you edit the file while X is running. But of course you need to restart X so changes will take effect. Are you trying to edit it as root user / superuser? You can check this with the "id" command. Output should be simmilar to the following: ==== root@esgaroth:~# id uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root) ==== Important is the "uid=0(root)". > Then I should do that via vi or emacs thru > command line editer? To change that file, you need to become root first. You can do this either by running the "su" command, or by changing to a text console (press <ctrl>+<alt>+<F1> at the same time) and log in as root. Yours sincerely, Alexander
