I apologize for the delay in my reply, I don't like restarting my X server<g>. ~/.xsession is started at the end of the Xsession.d, that's correct. However, in that case it's up to the ~/.xsession script to select a window manager to run, i.e. the user has to duplicate the functionality of 50xfree86-common_determine-startup. Note that: * ~/.xsession does not inherit variables such as REALSTARTUP * ~/.xsession cannot just call 50xfree86-common_determine-startup because all it would get is REALSTARTUP="... ~/.xsession"... again. > I am closing this bug due to the above analysis. So I don't think the bug should be closed: * forcing each user to duplicate 50xfree86-common_determine-startup functionality just so he can customize his mouse acceleration or have an xterm on startup does not seem like a good solution. * there's an interoperability issue with RedHat systems (e.g. HOME shared via NFS). -- Francois Gouget [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://fgouget.free.fr/ The software said it requires Win95 or better, so I installed Linux. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
