Nearly, but beware: On my RedHat9 system an executable .xsession in the home directory will run the stuff. On my SuSE 9.1 test an excutable .xsession works if you choose the gdm session to be [default]. If you choose [icewm] and you have a .xsession the you get the cute [your session lasted less than 10 secs ... ] message. The easiest is to select session to be [default] and have a .xsession eg xset dpms 500 600 700 icewmbg & icewm Mandrake could be similar to either, or different.
