Nothing to configure. okay. interesting, my understanding is that *should* just work, but regardless here is one solution: create a new ~/.xinitrc file and put in it the following: exec /usr/bin/wmaker x-terminal-emulator save the file and try startx. you *should* get a working wmaker session and if wmaker somehow fails, you'll instead get whatever the default x-terminal-emulator is in a bare X session. Either way, based on the logs you've sent, and the information you've provided, you should be up and running. A
