I'm not sure why it's not using .xsession, but try putting your setup in
.xprofile. That seems to work for me.

I changed a line in /etc/kde3/kdm/Xsession.

It read . /etc/X11/Xsession
I changed it to exec /etc/X11/Xsession

Hope it helps.

Re: since kde3 my startkde script is not called anymore

2002-07-18 Thread Shao, Lin
Thanks for the replies. .xprofile didn't work either. And I've not tried and 
don't want to mess with configuration files in /etc. There should be a place 
where I can find the official documentation of KDE-Debian and description on 
the official way of how to do KDE startup in Debian. Does anyone know?

Is this some kind of a bug for KDE in general or specific for Debian? It looks 
like a bug to me because, like I said, .xsession worked for KDE 2.2.

This depends how much you now renamed etc...  There are a few possiblities to 
start X.  Usually xinit or startx.  startx recognises two files:

~/.Xsession
~/.xsession

Make sure they have the executable bit set, and contain #!/bin/sh at the top

Hope this helps...




.xsession

Hi, there:

I used to use $HOME/.xsession to execute my environment setup script under KDE 
2.2, because apparently .bash_profile is not called at all at startup by kdm. 
But ever since I switched to KDE3, even .xsession does not work anymore. Does 
anyone have similar problem or answer to it? Thanks a lot.
