I have a small problem that hopefully will have a small answer...

I'm currently using fluxbox and i'd like to be able to use all those nifty 
dockable apps that go into the "slit" and as far as i can tell, the way to do 
that is to add a line into my .xinitrc file, but unfortunately mandrake sets 
up it's window managers using a file in /etc/X11/wmsession.d (this is my 
understanding of it anyway)  Now when i add my app of choice to the end of 
the fluxbox file (with the -w option by the way) nothing happens when i 
restart (the computer, X, and fluxbox).  

So my problem, as you may have guessed, is how to get those apps to start up 
automatically without using a .xinitrc!  (they do work, BTW.  I know this 
because i started them from the command line; i'd just like to not have to 
start them manually)

And to further complicate matters, the last time i tried to generate an 
.xinitrc file i ended up have to Alt-Ctrl-1 over to a different console and 
delete the file because it locked up X.  So i'm a little hesitant to try it 
again.

A little help?
