:) renamed .xsessionrc to .xsession and added exec fvwm as last line. All good now, cheers! For some reason I thought the 'exec fvwm' command was no longer necessary, but as someone has already mentioned I could ditch the .xsession* file(s) completely. This would mean moving the background handling into the .fvwm/config file, which would be the 'cleaner' solution. -- "If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." --- Malcolm X -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
