I like to run ssh-askpass before starting the window manager of my choice
(WindowMaker). This I used to achieve by having a .xsession in my home
directory. But since I installed 7.0 it seems that my .xsession is no
longer run when loggining in from gdm (startx doesn't do it either). This
sucks! My knowledge of gdm is quite limited so if anyone knows what it
actually does I would love to be informed :)
man chksession :).
In short you edit the file /etc/X11/window-managers, put the
Window-Maker entry in the top of file, and run /usr/sbin/fndSession.
you can do this :
--@@--
NAME=WindowMaker
ICON=WindowMaker.xpm
EXEC=/usr/X11R6/bin/wmaker
DESC=Another NeXt like Window-Manager
SCRIPT:
[ -f $HOME/GNUstep/Defaults/WindowMaker ] || {
/usr/X11R6/bin/wmaker.inst -batch
}
eval `ssh-agent`
exec /usr/X11R6/bin/wmaker
--@@--
to have the ssh environement.
