Any other command must (usually) be run with an '&' to make them run in the background. Each command will run sequentially in the file, so if you keep them as foreground tasks, then the second task can only start after the first is quit. so: -------------------- command1 & commmad2 & ... exec /usr/X11R6/bin/icewm -------------------- is what should be there.
