Thanks. As a little reminder: those are shell script *snippets*. They are sourced by the X session, i.e. the shell script which ultimately starts X. This way you can e.g. export environment which is "seen" by all of your X descendants (e.g. that shell started in your X terminal). Don't do nasties in there: don't exit, don't block, don't exec. That will prevent your X from starting. Cheers -- t
