Well the recommanded way to source your xsession is given in bug:
#398300.
There are two things that happen here:
You have to add a file named Xsessions.desktop to /etc/X11/sessions with the
contents:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Xsession
Comment=This runs ~/.xsession
Exec=/etc/X11/Xsession
Add to /etc/X11/Xsession.d/99x11-common_start :
---
if [ -f $HOME/.xsession ]
then
STARTUP=$HOME/.xsession
fi
---
If the is a .xsession file it will be run, If not, start the default session.
--
/etc/gdm/Xsession does not
Removing the file /etc/X11/Xsession.d/99x11-common_start did not work
for me.
My workaround was to add: STARTUP=$HOME/.xsession to
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/99x11-common_start but that will give you an error
if you *don't* have an .xsession file.

It seems like removing the file /etc/X11/Xsession.d/99x11-common_start
is a workaround for this.

I just wondered why my ~/.xsession did not execute any more after
upgrade to 9.10, here is the answer.
Are there any workaround for this bug?
