How did you look at your home directory's contents? If you used a
graphical file manager (e.g. GMC, Nautilus, Konqueror), make sure it
is set to show hidden files (filenames beginning with a "." are
automatically hidden). If you used a terminal screen, make sure you
use the command "ls -a" instead of just a plain "ls". This
will show all files, so you should be able to see ~/.xinitrc.
