Its all in .xsession Here is an example of my root accounts .xsession: exec xfwm
I normally use kde but when logging in as root I don't need all the bells and whistles, I just need to get in and fix something quick. I don't use any graphical manager as I tend to experiment quite a bit. I also like the console login, then run startx -- :n where n is the number of the screen I am using.
