I can't seem to figure out how to get rid of that default kanotix web page that comes up on the kde desktop by default on the kanotix-2006-easter-rc4 LIVE-CD. I've customized kde and several apps, using saveconfig to save it all to a 16MB usb thumb-drive, but I can't seem to get rid of that page. I don't really want to remaster but I will if there is no other way. All the info I find on this problem assumes a HDD install, but with the LIVE-CD there's no way to make the edits because the files are all on read-only fs's.
Is there an easy way to do this without remastering?

Every time you boot, the Xsession startup script will create an entry in the KDE autostart folder (/etc/X11/Xsession.d/45xsession). It should be possible to edit the script permanently by combining unionrw with persistent home feature. But I don't think it's worth the effort.
You could also copy the cd's contents to a hard drive, delete the file "index.html" (it isn't compressed) and create a new iso file with mkisofs. 45xsession will again look for "index.html", but as the file isn't there, the autostart mechanism doesn't work. |

I've decided it's too much trouble to bother with
RE:
> You could also copy the cd's contents to a hard drive, delete the file "index.html"...
Actually, that won't work either. konqueror will still run but will show a page with:
The file or folder file:///cdrom/index.html does not exist.
or similar...
Thanks, tho'

There's no error message because the script skips launching Konqueror if it can't find the index file. |

On my box if I edit ~/.kde/Autostart/showindex.desktop and change the argument "file:/cdrom/index.html" to say "file:/cdrom/indexx.html", (which seems like it would have the same effect, ie. konqueror will not find the file it is looking for), a konqueror window with the specified geometry pops up and says:
An error occurred while loading file:///cdrom/indexx.html:
The file or folder /cdrom/indexx.html does not exist. |
