Ok. After reinstalling Gnome, switching out the .Xclient-defaults file, things seem to be working....BUT http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/confused.gif

Now when I try and create an xterm in gnome I get this error: "There has been an error while trying to log on. If you are using Linux 2.2.x with glibc 2.1.x this is probably due to incorrectly setup Unix98 ptys. Pease read linux/Docu/Changes for how to set them up correctly"

Anyone have any idea how I can set this up properly? Another user asked this ? in March but no one responded.

Thanks,

JC
