Really? I looked. Your definition of "clear" and mine must be different. The xinit(1) man page suggests an ~/xinitrc like so: xrdb -load $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid gray & xclock -g 50x50-0+0 -bw 0 & xload -g 50x50-50+0 -bw 0 & xterm -g 80x24+0+0 & xterm -g 80x24+0-0 & twm I would assume (yea, I'm sticking my neck out) I could comment out twm and substitute another WM. Doing so works with WindowMaker. It doesn't with OpenBox. Reid Thompson suggested doing something similar here: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2010-02/msg00149.html What am I doing wrong and how can i fix it?
