Hi, just got annoyed and decided to issue this warning about the X server structure and documentation getting more and more messy and mysterious. there are tons of man pages about the labyrinthic way various X configuration files in /etc/X11 work and communicate with each other. however, they don't tell you how to do simple customization tasks! how do I change my default x window manager? how can one have x start a program, such as xscreensaver, globally (for all users). man pages say, you can start them in your ~/.xsession. I thought X would just append my xsession to the system-wide one in /etc/X11. worng! it only reads the ~/.xsession file and the desktop environment (xfce4) doesn's load at all!
