xinitrc sources /etc/X11/Xsession which sources all scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d so you can put /etc/X11/XSession.d/99skippy script (which can for example check to /etc/default/skippy to check if skippy should be started). That way xinitrc isn't modified. Anyway, you should take a look at tpb's package which operates this way. bye, nive -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
