Hi Branden, Thanks for looking at this. I'm sorry to tell you that I'm not very clever about all the Xsession/xinit stuff. So I may not provide all the help needed. Anyway, I made the mistake of upgrading to KDE 3.2 and X 4.3.0 at the same time, so this problem may be related to *anything* Regarding your questions: 1) I'm not using any [xgk]dm (if that's what you meant) 2) Yes, the problem manifests with startx 3) I added the set -x in /etc/X11/Xsession, but I get NOTHING in ~/.xsession-errors (So, I guess /etc/X11/Xsession is not being called) After upgrading (KDE and X) startx stopped running startkde, and the X server will bail out, xinit was trying to start xterm (which is not installed). I installed xterm and startx will bring the X server and a xterm up. No KDE. So I had to put exec /usr/bin/startkde in a .xinitrc to get KDE started with startx. In any case /etc/X11/Xsession is not being called. Again, feel free to close this bug if you think I'm too clueless to use/configure this stuff :) Thanks, Alberto -- Alberto Gonzalez Iniesta | BOFH excuse #438: agi@(agi.as|debian.org) | sticky bit has come loose Encrypted mail preferred | Key fingerprint = 9782 04E7 2B75 405C F5E9 0C81 C514 AF8E 4BA4 01C3
