What i want to do is set up a DSL box to boot, enter X and then open Mozilla and keep it open (if a user closes it, then i
want it to automatically reopen). I need NO useability out of this setup except for Mozilla to point to a website, That is all.

Any suggestions, as when i try to kill the current window manager X dies.

I neglected to mention that the box that it is running on is a p120 with 16mb of ram. KioskCD requires 64mb of ram to run

You won't be running Firefox with 16mb ram. You MAY be able to get X and Dillo going with 16mb but I'm afraid that's about it.

Firefox is running on this machine. I have managed to get X running on its own (no window manager) and i have figure out a way to start firefox (yes it works on 16mb/ram, to start it i have to use xterm -e) BUT firefox wont accept input from the keyboard. If i start a window manager firefox will accept input but the idea of running no window manager is to restrict the users to the browser only
