Just try it and find out! But yes, you only need to put it in your .xinitrc. I don't even have a .xsession.. so I'm not sure what its for. I've never actually used exec to start a wm, just put: fluxbox & in .xinitrc, along with other things I want to start. --Charlie ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
