Has anyone been able to use BL3 as 'user' with Xvesa? If so, I will try
to figure out how it differs from the Xvesa in BL2 that I installed using
the delilinux package, which won't let me use it as 'user'. Regular X
worked as 'user' on another computer with BL2. You recommended using
browsers as 'user' after dialing ppp as root for security reasons. Would
you want to make up some simple add-on package for BL3 to add a 'user'?
After you get unpacked, of course.
