Good question. In the kde autostart folder there is a konq preload.desktop file. Have a look at that and all the other initial startup files. By making dektop files for the services you want you can use the switches you will see there that tell when things should start . For instance look at the panel.desktop file and how it is told to wait until after kdesktop. -- regards, andrew ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde-linux mailing list.
