I red the discussion between James Miller and Steven (May 19, 2003)
concerning root/user. Clearly, it would be wise to browse the net as a
regular user, not as root. However, if I log in as "user" instead of
"root" then X looks awful (as if X starts without icewm?) and I can't
start my browser. Any suggestions how to solve this problem? Nomdo
