If you are starting X from console by typing startx than the following
files are used :

.xinitrc
.Xdefaults

If you are using GUI login directly say using KDM than the following
files are used :

.xsession
.Xresources

If you are using kdm than you can put insert in .xsession

icewm

If you want icewm to come in the drop down list than add icewm in
kdmrc. You have to modify the SessionTypes entry.

SessionTypes=default,twm,sawfish,kde2,gnome-session,failsafe,icewm

If you plan to use kdm and say after sometime text based login than
create the links -

rajesh@woody:~$ l .xsession
lrwxrwxrwx    1 rajesh   rajesh          8 Sep 23 09:19 .xsession -> .xinitrc
rajesh@woody:~$ l .Xresources 
lrwxrwxrwx    1 rajesh   rajesh         10 Sep 23 09:19 .Xresources -> .Xdefaults
rajesh@woody:~$

Sub : Dependent libraries for a binary               LOST #065

The easiest way to check out as to which libraries a binary is
dependent, try:  $ldd binary-file

Example: $ldd /bin/ls
         libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40018000)
         /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
