Hi all.. thanks foir all your help, because of you I figured it out. for some reason, fvwm starts automatically (I haven't figured out why) and when I created my .xsession, fvwm no longer loaded, so I had to load it myself from my .xsession script. so now my last line of my .xsession is: exec fvwm & and all is well. :-)
does anyone know why creating .xsession causes fvwm to NOT load anymore? I'd really like to know why thanks again!! xucaen --- "David B.
