Getting the gnome-session setup is a funny beast. There should be an easy way to do it, but I haven't found it. The docs aren't much help either. Anyway, what worked for me was to start icewm-gnome, in the regular fashion. Then execute gnome-nameservice &, panel &, and then gnome-session &. The I edited my ~/.xsession to look like the this:
#!/bin/bash xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources #get some custom settings loaded esd -terminate -as 2 & #esound demon that shares exec gnome-session You'll probably have to futz with it a bit before it'll work. Note, it you "exec" something in a shell script, whatever that something does *replaces* the shell script. So, anything following will never be executed. -- Eric G.
