It looks as though both entries are taken seriously. I end up with the gnome desktop and my previous-loaded packages - when loaded onto the desktop - open at the point at which I had left them when I shut down fvwm2. The first tweak suggested in: http://linuxgazette.net/100/adam.html does not appear to work in conjunction with "fvwm-themes". I have failed to locate the "gnome-session-manager" (because I lack a basic familiarity with Gnome) and I suspect that the "killall" command needs additional modification if it is to start "fvwm-themes" next time. And, in view of the other posts, where should the xearth command go? Left where it is or into ".xinitrc"? I venture to send this follow-up, because it looks as though it now needs very little to achieve what I was trying to do.
