Howdy,

I had installed redhat 9 on my Dell Latitude C840 and then upgraded through KDE 3.3 and then 3.4. From the first bootup with kde 3.4, I noticed there would be a flash of redhat 'bluecurve' background that seemed to be a remnant of KDE 3.3, and then login screen would come on. The logon screen's background is just a plain one-color background that I didn't assign. After typing in my id and password, the background I assigned through Login Manager flashes just briefly before the splash screen comes on.

I would like to get rid of the redhat 'bluecurve' screen that momentarily flashes before my login screen is on and be able to have the background that I assigned while I am logging on, instead of having the assigned background come on just momentarily right after I log on and the screen is in transition to the splash screen.

To sum up the situation, I have the following displays while login process is occurring:

flash of redhat bluecurve ----> logon screen (plain one color background) -----> flash of background that I assigned ------> splash screen of KDE coming on

I want to change it to:
logon screen (background that I assigned) ------> splash screen of KDE coming on

I'd appreciate if anyone can help me out with this problem of not getting the background I want....

I know it's just cosmetic, but it still bugs the hell out of me.....

Thanks,

BTW, I did try to search the forum, but it's not working for me....
