So, I do a 'group reply' to pick up what is on the Cc: line. OK, elm is broken. Nevertheless, PLEASE DO NOT CONTINUE TO CC ME. Sending to only the list is fine. I read the list. It's generally considered rude here to cc people with a second copy unless they request them. It's especially rude to continue to do it after they've asked you to stop, and even more so if the recipient is someone who's taking time to try to be helpful.

Given that you snipped the rest of the message I sent, I'm a little worried that you thought I'd top-posted, and thought that what you quoted was all I added. There was a bunch of stuff further below, indicating what I think is up with your gdm installation and what I think is up with KDE. You may have seen it and trimmed it; but due to paranoia, I'm just making sure you caught it. -c -- Chris Metzler cmetzler@speakeasy.snip-me.net (remove "snip-me." to email) "As a child I understood how to give; I have forgotten this grace since I have become civilized." - Chief Luther Standing Bear
