Hi, everyone I have a problem about the gdm login method and wonder if anyone can give me some information about it. :-)
I'm used to use a text login method, that is, when I need X I will type `startx' to start it. And, I have some global environment viariables in /etc/profile. For example, the $PATH, the $LOCALE, and some other settings.
Recently, I began to use the GDM login method. However, I found gdm does not read /etc/profile at all. I read the manual of gdm and put all my settings to /etc/X11/gdm/Init/Default and /etc/X11/gdm/PreSessions/Default, but it does not work :-(
Some friends told me to put global settings into /etc/environment and personal ones into ~/.gnomerc. But, the /etc/environment is not a bash script file and PATH=$PATH:... is not intepreted correctly.
Anyone can give some help about this problem. I'll be very very thankful for your help.
^_^
