In your info on lxsession you say that it should work with *any* window-manager. Just write a profile for gdm3 and configure lxsession correctly. Well, I have tried for several days now, in vain. --I am using Debian sid, up to date (this is august 30 2012) and lxsession version reads as 0.4.6.1-4
I test this WM-agnostic lxsession using jwm and my profile-name is Jwing, and all goes well up to a point, namely, gdm3 recognizes my entry and so on. It's just that after I start my Jwing session it immediately ends and returns to gdm3. I was badly baffled. After all you promise that this works for all window managers, not just LXDE. Then I tried naming my profile LXDE and THAT DID IT. See, I name my profile as LXDE in $HOME/.config/lxsession/LXDE/desktop.config and so I did finally manage to start jwm... But does this mean that lxsession only accepts the default profile named LXDE? Here are my scripts: juham@idril:~$ cat /usr/bin/startjwm #!/bin/sh exec /usr/bin/lxsession -s Jwing cat /usr/share/xsessions/Jwing.desktop [Desktop Entry] Name=Jwing Comment=Minimalistic pure X11 window manager with menu/tray support Type=Application Terminal=False Exec=/usr/bin/startjwm TryExec=/usr/bin/startjwm cat .config/lxsession/LXDE/desktop.conf [Session] desktop=jwm *** I point out that ONLY the last modification, .config/lxsession/LXDE/desktop.conf actually started my jwm session running, nothing else works. At least, this is the only way lxsession will start any other window manager whatsoever. *** I also tried using /etc/xdg/lxsession... but that does not work either. Still, here it is, I took it straight from your example: cat /etc/xdg/lxsession/Jwing/desktop.conf [Session] window_manager=jwm [GTK] #iNet/DoubleClickTime=400 #iNet/DoubleClickDistance #iNet/DndDragThreshold #iNet/CursorBlink #iNet/CursorBlinkTime sNet/ThemeName=Clearlooks sNet/IconThemeName=nuoveXT2 sGtk/FontName=Sans 10 #iGtk/IconSizes #sGtk/KeyThemeName iGtk/ToolbarStyle=3 #iGtk/ToolbarIconSize #iGtk/IMPreeditStyle #iGtk/IMStatusStyle iGtk/ButtonImages=1 iGtk/MenuImages=1 #sGtk/CursorThemeName= iGtk/CursorThemeSize=18 iXft/Antialias=1 #iXft/Hinting #iXft/HintStyle #iXft/RGBA #iXft/DPI #iGtk/TouchscreenMode [Mouse] AccFactor=20 AccThreshold=10 LeftHanded=0 [Keyboard] Delay=500 Interval=30 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
