Under RHEL4/5, it was just a matter of adding stuff under /etc/X11/*

For example: /usr/share/applications/gnome-terminal.desktop

Hi Phil,

Unless I am mistaken, stuff under /usr/share/applications is for
gnome-compliant applications, not for a complete session chosen from GDM
to be neither Gnome or KDE (which is what I'd like to do).
I'll continue my readings..

Cheers,

On Fedora 14/15, it looks like you add a .desktop file to /usr/share/xsessions/ .

I don't have a RH6 box handy that has any desktop environments on it, but that may help as a next place to start looking/researching.

For xfce on a Fedora 15 box, a brief version of the xfce.desktop file is:


[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Xfce Session
Comment=Use this session to run Xfce as your desktop environment
Exec=startxfce4
Icon=
Type=Application
