Simply delete the file /usr/share/autostart/krootwarning.desktop and it will never happen again. What krootwarning does is to run every time a user logs on, and if they log on as root it will display a message saying what a bad idea running as root is. If the user is not root, krootwarning will quietly exit, but the task bar entry hangs around for a while. If you wish that root users still get the warning message move krootwarning.desktop to /root/.kde/Autostart/ xjlittle Frequent user Joined: 04 May 2002 Posts: 33 Post Posted: Sat Jun 15, 2002 7:35 pm Post subject: Cool _________________________________________________________________ I'm mostly a gnome user but that krootwarning is the most annoying thing when I use kde.
