Gnome Warning

[Gregory J. Neumann]

Could you script in a command line mp3 player before the X session starts and avoid 
the problem altogether?  
Is there a compelling reason to have this machine that does not appear to be used by 
a human being run a GUI at all?  
Or am I missing something here?
