Hi,

I have installed gnome2 on my woody machines. On one machine, I put the
following in ~/.xinitrc

   exec oroborus &
   exec gnome-session

On this machine, I do not have gdm2 installed. So, when I use startx, I
get the gnome-desktop with oroborus window manager.

On another machine, I have gdm2 installed. But, if I put the above
commands in ~/.xsession, I always get the icewm-gnome window manager.
Actually whatever wm is pointed to at /etc/alternatives x-window-manager
comes. 

I checked and could not find a way to set the default wm for the
gnome-session using the gnome-control-center. How does one do it? Does
not the ~/.xsession rote work anymore in gnome2? 

Any pointers to get this thing working properly?

Regards,
