If you edit that you can insert programs that you want started at boot. For example:
xscreensaver & gkrellm2 -w $ exec fluxbox Just be sure that the fluxbox line is the last line in the file. This is the way I do it. I don't really use .xsession at all. Maybe this won't do what you want. Just a thought. Mike -- Regards, Mike [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Don't Fear The Penguin." -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
