2002-05-03 Thread Richard Otte
Hi, I have gdm installed, but am unable to have any commands executed at startup in .xsession or .xinitrc. I have the line exec wmaker& in my .xsession file, but when I choose xsession in gdm the screen goes blank and I'm shortly returned to the gdm login session. I can login by choosing windowma
