Hello all,
             Thanks to Oded and Martin, I managed to setup entrance at
last in Fedora Core 3.

Here are the steps:

1. We integrate E into the FC evironment. i.e in /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession
    we try to add some lines for E. Try to locate the relevant parts and insert.
 
===========================================
[SNIP] 

case "$1" in
failsafe)
exec -l $SHELL -c "xterm -geometry 80x24-0-0"
;;
gnome)
exec -l $SHELL -c "$DBUS_LAUNCH gnome-session"
;;
# The followine lines should be added.
Enlightenment)
exec -l $SHELL -c "$DBUS_LAUNCH enlightenment"
;;
# end of changes
kde|kde1|kde2)
exec -l $SHELL -c "$DBUS_LAUNCH $SWITCHDESKPATH/Xclients.kde"
;;
twm)
# fall back to twm
exec -l $SHELL -c "$DBUS_LAUNCH $SWITCHDESKPATH/Xclients.twm"
;;
[SNIP]
==========================================================
2. We edit  /etc/X11/prefdm to tell the system to launch Entrance...

[SNIP]

 elif [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = XDM ]; then
preferred=xdm
# We add this line but remember that it has to match /etc/sysconfig/desktop
elif [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = E17 ]; then
preferred=entranced
# End of changes
   fi
fi
[SNIP]

if [ -n "$preferred" ] && which $preferred >/dev/null 2>&1; then
#  I commented out this line below and added the line just after it
#       exec `which $preferred` $* >/dev/null 2>&1
exec /usr/sbin/entranced -nodaemon $* >/dev/null 2>&1
fi
[SNIP]

3. Make sure your /etc/sysconfig/desktop ressembles this:

DESKTOP="E17"

4. Reboot and now you're ready to launch entrance. Works like a charm!



With kind regards,
Didier.
