The first one on the list is the default window-manager, so move fvwm2 to the top of the list. You will not then need to do anything with .xsession.
Another thing to note, if you do need to change ~/.xsession, is that .xsession is used by xdm but not by startx (which uses .xinitrc). You should ensure that ~/.xsession is linked to ~/.xinitrc so that they are effectively the same file. You also need to check /etc/X11/config, as Noah pointed out. -- Oliver Elphick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Isle of Wight http://www.lfix.co.uk/oliver PGP key from public servers; key ID 32B8FAA1 ======================================== "Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy.
