It seems xinit is now executing the shell script /usr/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc (which tries starting a few xterms and twm) instead of /etc/X11/xinitrc (which runs /etc/X11/Xsession). I temporarily fixed this by moving /usr/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc aside and making a symlink to /etc/X11/xinitrc. Another possible solution might be to just symlink /etc/X11/xinitrc as $HOME/.xinitrc. (I suppose on the upside of all this massive breakage, I finally have a reason to figure out how X works. :-/) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
