You presume correctly. The manual for each describe the full set of options, but users will typically have a .xsession file in their home directories for the former, and .xinitrc for the latter. /etc/ttys is not relevant. How the xterms get started within the X session is the key. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
