After apt installed some packages during upgrade to
slink-proposed-upgrades, my xwindows wouldn't work. I changed
.xinitrc to remove all references to gnome, but it did not work. I
suspect it has something to do with installing a newer version of icewm.
But even after installing wmaker and removing references to icewm in my
.xinitrc, I could not get it working.
Then I installed xdm and it did get xwindows to work using icewm, but no
gnome and it ignores .xsession as well as my icewm-configuration (eg. it
shows only 1 workspace).
I am not sure which packages apt-get installed. I remember seeing
something like fnlib and imlib packages as well as icewm-gnome. Is there
a way to downgrade to get my previous configuration back?
Where can I see the reason for startx's failure? .xsession-errors was not
updated.
I do not like xdm. I seems to ignore every configuration file I have in
my home directory. I would like to get rid of it.
