So, you've told your X session to exit immediately. This will probably produce the behavior you're seeing, of it exiting immediately. :-) Try adding the following line at the bottom of .xsession: exec /usr/bin/wmaker || x-terminal-emulator and it should work. (that says to run wmaker, and to run an xterm if wmaker can't be found) Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
