So finally I can see that lxde reads the file ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE/desktop.conf to figure out what window-manager it needs to use. Can I someone tell it to use some other config file. Maybe something like startx /usr/bin/lxsession ~/.config/xmonad/desktop.conf and in there I will have window_manager=/usr/bin/xmonad Is something like that feasible and if yes, how do I specify to lxde to use the config file ~/.config/xmonad/desktop.conf instead of the lxde config file?
