Raster Re: fun and games with GDM "TryExec"
I set up a script as you suggested and referenced it in "TryExec" with an explicit path. Enlightenment disappears from the menu and the script does NOT appear to execute. I noticed that "gnome.desktop" references "gnome-session" without a path so I set up "TryExec=enlightenment-start" since "/usr/local/bin" is in PATH. Enlightenment appears on the menu but does not run. The cursor changes to an "X" and nothing else happens. Requires Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to get back to the log-in and this may cause a lock-up requiring a hardware reset. I moved my script to "/usr/local/bin" and referenced it in TryExec without an explicit path. Enlightenment appears in the menu but does not run as above. The script does not appear to execute. The script works when executed from a user terminal. This particular build is obviously FUBAR but I wonder if some experimental code sneaked into it. The gnomes might be planning to make a more comprehensive test for this in the future and it might be worth keeping an eye out for a change. Meantime, it might be a good idea to remove "TryExec" from the file. XFCE does not use it.
