In my case I wanted to force icewm for some users and kde for others. cd /usr/share/xsessions ls custom.desktop failsafe.desktop IceWM.desktop kde.desktop
vi kde.desktop [Desktop Entry] Hidden=true if it doesn't exist, create failsafe.desktop [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Failsafe Hidden=true And do the same with the other .*desktop files vi IceWM.desktop [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=IceWM Comment=This is the window manager IceWM Comment[de]=Dies ist der Fenstermanager IceWM Exec=/usr/bin/icewm-session Icon=icewm.xpm Type=Application Hidden=true vi custom.desktop [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Custom Comment=This is the window manager IceWM Type=Application Hidden=false Now modify ~/.xsession to start the desired default desktop exec icewm I can't remember if I had to do anything else.
