Seems like there's some browser out there that lets you to specify what servers are allowed to do popups. Not much help though, because I'm not positive and can't think of a name...

Del:  I dont want to "block" these popups.  The popups arent ads, they are information sites related to the main page.  

cbagger01:  Thanks for the xtdesktop and tabbed browser bits, I will try them.  I have googled extensively, I found a number of very similar projects.  But there were sufficient differences to warrant incorporating the bits that do relate into a new setup.

Anyone know how to reatart x if it exits/dies?

If X locks up on you, press CTL-ALT-BACKSPACE keys to return to the text mode command prompt.

To restart X server, type 'startx' from the command prompt.

cbagger01:  I know how to restart X... but this is for a kiosk and users will not know how to do this.  I was looking for something along the lines of a background app that can check if x is running, if it isn't it will run startx.  Would that work?  And whats the best way to do this...

I suppose that you could write a shell script that checks to see if the xvesa or xfbdev process is up and running, execute a restart if if is NOT running, sleep for 30 seconds, and then call itself again in an endless loop.

Some knowledge of shell script programming, the 'ps' command, the 'grep' command, and some kind of 'sleep' command would be required.

Good Luck.
