You don't want to exec the commands, just enter: mutt & rxvt & exec fvwm2 (or your preferred window manager) You should also probably just put these in .xsession, as I believe both .xinitrc and .xsession are run by startx, but other *only* run .xsession. -- Morgan Wajda-Levie http://www.worldaxes.com/wajdalev PGP fingerprint: A353 C750 660E D8B6 5616 F4D8 7771 DD21 7BF6 221C http://www.worldaxes.com/wajdalev/public.asc for PGP key
