I tried that with no success. I left the default-display manager entry to xdm. Simply creating that file and adding 'exec fluxbox' (without the quotes). Upon starting X and getting my login window (under KDE) it halts and can't get past loading any of the other services under X. I deleted the file and restored as it was. Another Debian user suggested solely changing ~/.xsession. I somehow feel there is more to this. Finding some errors in my ~/.xsession-errors file, I see errors pertaining to the following:
_IceTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.ICE-unix should be set to root Invalid entry (missing '=') at /home/tonyuv/Desktop/Debian.desktop:2 Invalid entry (missing '=') at /home/tonyuv/Desktop/Debian.desktop:3 Invalid entry (missing '=') at /home/tonyuv/Desktop/Debian.desktop:4 Invalid entry (missing ']') at /home/tonyuv/Desktop/Debian.desktop:5 Looking at this file, I see the following: [Desktop Entry] Icon=deb Type=Link URL=file:/etc/kde2/debian.html Any significance or adminissable error you think?
