Do you really want xdm at all? I use fluxbox without it, just as you used to run it. However, you can rummage around in /etc/X11. I note there's a /etc/X11/gdm that's a link to /etc/gdm/ which contains gdm.conf, and that mentions a few graphical things. Otherwise, dump *dm and hack your style file: ~/.fluxbox/styles/TDF: rootCommand: /usr/bin/feh --bg-center /home/keeling/grf/omega_nebula.jpg -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
