I hadn't thought so, but will try it.
Hm... X/xDM is started from a virtual console (mine is usually started

At some point /etc/rc.conf was no longer being sourced. Instead,
setting the XSESSION variable in /etc/env.d is the correct way to do
it. From the pkg_postinst section of the x11-apps/xinit ebuild[1]:

Hi!
Thanks Mike, most helpful! What happens if you want to switch between
different sessions at/from the Display Manager stage? Do you place
them all in /etc/env.d/90xsession ?
