After editing the wdm-config, you need to restart wdm. Ctrl-Alt-Backspace will kill the X server and re-read all the configs. can you please post your wdm-config and a list of your package installed ? (or make them available online) the relevant section in my config: --- ! It will run .xsession !DisplayManager*wdmWm: None --- which means it will read .xsession in my home. my .xsession is : $ cat ~/.xsession ## RUNNING bbkeys from Blackbox because it feels more powerful ## to avoid conflicts with fluxbox's key mgr, I emptied .fluxbox/keys bbkeys & xscreensaver -no-splash & fbpager -w & #wmwifi & sleep 1 && gkrellm -w & #fbdesk & torsmo & tilda & skype & gaim & fluxbox --- though I realise that I should be simply running startfluxbox and adding all the other cmds to ~/.fluxbox/startup HIH, beto _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
