martin f krafft previously posted a bug against kdm and there has been some discussion logged. I just posted a summary of the various d-u discussions there. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=250765 I like the technique of using #!/bin/bash for Xsession and then using 'exec -l' to start the shell. It seems like a better solution than ~/.xsession using a login shell. It promotes compatibility between distros. It solves a long running problem for newbies. It loads the login environment regardless of using [gkx]dm 'default' or selecting a specific window manager.
