Ah, ok.  I wasn't reading carefully enough.

  When I fire up X the resources file loads, but the galeon and emacs line appears 
to do nothing. I am confused?
 
 That's quite odd...Maybe emacs is running the background somewhere?
 What does 'ps aux|grep -i emacs' say?
It says;
keith 7658 0.0 0.0 1336 440 pts/3  2  16:59  0:00 grep -i emacs

 Is your ~/.xsession executable?
It is 744 and it is keith.keith as ownner.group

 If you stick a line like 'xclock' in your .xsession, do you get a 
 clock on X startup?
Nope - no clock?

Now I'm not just confused, I'm concerned.

Keith.

You haven't given us (and no one that I've seen has asked) the most
important bit of information for answering your question:

You've said you fire up X, but... _HOW_ do you fire it up?  Do you run
startx?  Do you use XDM?  GDM?  Some other display manager?

These methods all look at different startup files.  Startx will
typically read ~/.xinitrc.  XDM will read ~/.xsession.  And GDM will
read ~/.gnomerc (if you're using a Gnome desktop).

Try with .Xsession instead of .xsession.
It depends on the version of X (3.x vs. 4.x) which files are being read.

Right.  These files are _sourced_ (. $HOME/.xsession), not executed, so
they don't need to be executable, only readable.

As I said, XDM reads .xsession and GDM reads ~/.gnomerc _if you use a
Gnome desktop_.

If you use a normal X desktop, not Gnome, then GDM will read .xsession
as well.

Go look in the files in /etc/gdm/Sessions/ to see what gets read for what
kind of session if you use GDM.
