Running Woody, X 4.0.1, and the Nvidia .95 drivers. The first problem is that /etc/X11/Xsession doesn't seem to get sourced during manual startx logins. I would like to throw a few things in there (xscreensaver, etc.). It does get sourced when using a login manager. Any personal xsession or xresources files also never seem to be read. I do have "allow-user-resources" and "allow-user-xsession" in my Xsession.options file.
My next question is coincidentally about login managers. If I use kdm or wdm I am not allowed to su to root and launch anything. I get a connection refuesed by server error. I am sure this is probably a one word edit in a config but I am just not sure _which_ config. Any hints? GDM doesn't have this problem but when I try to luanch anything besides a gnome session it flashes a couple of times and returns me to the login. My third problem involves gtk themes, basically I can't use any. I get a warning about "libpixmap.so." I thought that maybe I could just add it to my modules to load in my XF86Config-4 file but that didn't seem to work. All of this automagically worked before, but a new hd was required, so I'm starting all over again :-). TIA, jt
