There's no need to copy /etc/X11/Xsession. That file "exec"s the user's $HOME/.xsession if there's one. The user may have just the following two lines in his .xsession: #!/bin/sh exec <your-favourite-wm> (add a "xterm -sl 500 -sb -ls -fn 10x20 -j &" line before the exec if you want an open xterm on startup). -- Enrique Zanardi [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
