Howdy,

        I was in the same boat (needing to launch a specific application instead of
XDM).  In my case, these were touchscreens that had no keyboard.

        What I eventually did was modified rc.local to not create the X startup
script each time - just to execute it.  THen I manaully configured a shell
script that spawned off the X server with -ac, then fire up the program you
want to run.  Like this:

#!/bin/sh
XF86_SVGA -ac &
sleep 5
export DISPLAY=`hostname`:0.0
rsh homer touchManager 

In this case, you'd do something much like this, but adjust the rsh command
(replace touchManager).

Best of luck!
