Hi All, I'm new to Redhat, though I've been using SuSE for the past two years.
Rather than Gnome or KDE, my desktop of choice is XFCE (it's superfast - if you'd like to try it, it's on the Redhat Powertools CD). My problem - I can't seem to make XFCE the default desktop. The switchdesk tool does not include an option for XFCE. Under SuSE there is an environment variable called $WINDOWMANAGER, but I can find no evidence of its existence in Redhat. I have a good book about Redhat which says that I can set the default desktop by creating a hidden file in my home directory called .Xclients-default with the command "exec startxfce" inside - alas, it does not work. The only way I can get XFCE to start is from the command line by typing "startxfce" - which is OK, but not elegant. I hope that somebody can tell me how to make XFCE the default. Thanks in advance, Robert Storey __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Buy the perfect holiday gifts at Yahoo!
