what to do without gnome-session
I used to use gnome and start X with the following .xinitrc: exec gnome-session But after upgrading to gnome2, gnome-session has disappeared. What am I supposed to exec to launch gnome2 session? I tried using exec /etc/X11/Xsession but that never produced an Xwindow screen (just some noise). This may or may not be related to the fact that I'm using nvidia drivers.

Since GDM still hasn't been updated, I just use startx, open up an xterm, and then run gnome-session. Set everything the way you like it and make sure you save your session before you log out. When you go back in gnome-session should automatically load up with gnome. -Alex signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
