See my xinitrc below. Most of the time I just run kde (with startx), but sometimes I want a different desktop manager, and can do it with 'startx -- :1'. Someone creative could likely do far more with .xinitrc than I have. .xinitrc: #!/bin/bash case "$DISPLAY" in :0) exec /usr/kde/3.1/bin/startkde;; :1) exec /usr/bin/fluxbox -display :1;; :2) exec /usr/bin/gnome-session -display :2;; esac -- CAUTION: Product will be hot after heating -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
