What I do is just put a line in your .xsession with the command to start the window manager ... I use windowmaker : #!/bin/sh if [ -f $HOME/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/.workspace_state ]; then sh $HOME/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/.workspace_state & fi exec wmaker And when I enter my username and password from the xdm console, it will start my window manager.
