It was not, so it was part of the problem.

It does, I was just not waiting long enough.

I now have a very strange behavior:
- I can launch e17 with startx
- if I try to launch it with elogin, it works a little: e get started,
  but all my .xinitrc stuff does not happen (I think it is a path
  problem, need to check that). I attach my .xinitrc and my mysetting
  files, so that you can have an idea of what is going on
- if I lauch "mysetting" manually, e17 suddenly quits and I'm back to
  elogin screen
- I cannot lauch e again (either through elogin or startx) until I
  - mv .e away
  - restart e
  - get my desktop subfolder back into .e to have my default iconbar and
    bg

I'm a bit confused at what is happening. I could try rebuilding e to the
latest version, but I do not remember much changing recently (and the
problem comes only when I launch e through elogin).

Thanks,

Alan
