Good effort! :) 40x11-common_xsessionrc will hang at the 'exec fvwm' command. This is ok if all you want is a fvwm managed desktop. However, the subsequent commands in /etc/X11/Xsession.d will then not be sourced. This could spell disaster for someone who wanted consolekit or ssh-agent to be set up. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
