according to the X scripts (first Xsession then the files in Xsession.d/) startup=$HOME/.xsession then it checks to see if what it was passed (kde2/default/failsafe) exists... if it is it changes $startup to it. then it checks to see if $startup exists..then to see if allow-user-xsession is set in /etc/X11/Xsession.options and if it is then realstartup = startup (or sh startup depending on if it's executable or not) now..if either $startup doesn't exist or allow-user-xsession isn't set then realstartup = x-window-manager. hmmm...so it's a Debian X feature. :) Ivan -- ---------------- Ivan E.
