I decided to add an ~/.Xclients file, but it hangs X (that is, the "X" loading symbol remains permanently and the desktop has a black background). However, the xterm in this file loads as well as do the other Xclients.
#!/bin/bash # This is a comment xterm This .Xclients file is owned by user, and has rwxr-xr-x permissions. I suspect that's where the problem may lie, but so far no luck straightening it out.
