I would like to pass the -br option to the X server when it starts, so that instead of displaying the default root weave pattern (which flickers and gives me a dizzy feeling), I get a solid black background in the root window. Where exactly is the correct place to put this -br option, so that whether X is started by xdm, or manually with startx, this option is honoured? Regards, Anand -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
