ivansv,

Are you sure you are actually loading something other than KDE in "other accounts other than root"?

I have Knoppix 3.3, and I installed it the same way, through the use of knx-hdinstall.

My root account comes up with this "slick" looking background with KDE on it, and my "other" accounts come up with the usual "knoppix" background.

I think its only the "background" that is changing [?]

I hope I am right on this one, I've been assuming that KDE is always running, just the backgrounds are different, and I kinda like it, it makes it easier to "visually" see which account I am in, root or "other" accounts.

Hmmmmmm, anyone got any ideas???
