I've asked this before, how I can get a user other than damnsmall to log on, and I seem to have found a decent solution.. just edit the 99xfree86-common_start file and run fluxbox as satoshi.  This, however, doesn't dump me to my home directory when i open a console window...  I've heard a startup script mentioned several times on this board, but the closest I've ever come to any info on this startup script is here http://damnsmalllinux.org/cgi-bin....n;st=10.  And that doesn't help because all that was said was "do what I did and make a startup script to log out", how!?  I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me out here, being logged in as satoshi, but having the console default to /home/damnsmall is really annoying.  Typing cd ../satoshi is just too much for me :D

Assuming you are using version 0.4.x, try adding this in your 99xfree86-common_start:
export HOME=/home/satoshi
cd $HOME

If that doesn't work open up startx and modify the HOME path in there.

Oh, make sure you put those before
xhost + local:
su satoshi -c fluxbox

Okie dokie, I'll try that the next time I get the chance, the computer with DSL on it is at my dad's, and I'm at my mom's this weekend.  Thanks for the help though.
