The xlogin widget, which xdm presents, offers the familiar
login and password prompts.
After the user logs in, xdm runs the Xstartup script as
root.
Then xdm runs the Xsession script as the user. This sys-
tem session file may do some additional startup and typi-
cally runs the .xsession script in the user's home direc-
tory. When the Xsession script exits, the session is
over.

Yup, that's right, you could've found that out by reading the manual.
