First of all, thanks for your suggestions, I am not finihed with trying them all. At least they help me to get to new viewpoints in this dschungel of X.
I just realized, that in the users homedirectory there are files like: .TWM-errors: /usr/X11R6/bin/RunWM: line 1: exec: twm: not found .xsession-errors: WARNING: You selected Fvwm2 as your window manager, but your installation does not appear to be functional. The executable /usr/X11R6/bin/fvwm2 was not found on your system. RESUMING with TWM... X connection to ws008.ltsp:0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown). So it seems as if my ~/.xinitrc is NOT used. # exec /usr/X11R6/bin/fluxbox exec /usr/bin/icewm # exec /usr/bin/qvwm Examining /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/screen.d/startx shows me, that xinit is NOT used at all. May be, that this is the reason why the login is terminated immediatly after successfull auth.?
