-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 OK, so there is this large part of me that REALLY wants to be using my .xsession to do things like run ssh-add, remap the 'Caps Lock' key to where it should be, etc. I have found, however, that when I try to use my .xsession in correlation with 'gdm', it doesn't work. I have also found that my .xsession keeps getting re-written to just launch my window manager (Enlightenment). After a LOT of research, I finally found the 'gdm' scripts (located in /etc/X11/gdm for those of you who are wondering) and made the modifications to the '/etc/X11/gdm/Sessions/Enlightenment' script that was necessary to make ssh-add run, and run 'xmodmap /home/$USER/.keymap', if it exists. It worked wonderfully, until I rebooted, then mysteriously, my '/etc/X11/gdm/Sessions/Enlightenment' has been re-written to just launch Enlightenment (using the /etc/X11/Xsession script, that SAYS it want's to run ssh-add if you have a ~/.ssh/identity file, but doesn't actually ever do it....) So now, I am taking suggestions and assistance to make this work correctly, and STAY working correctly. I'd either like to a) get the /etc/X11/Xsession script to run correctly, b) find whatever is re-writing my .xsession and /etc/X11/gdm/Sessions files and kill it, or c) find the alternative I haven't found yet for running things before the windows manager is launched. Your assistance is much appreciated! (P.S. in order to get 'ssh-add' to work correctly, I had to kill the line that calls /etc/X11/Xsession and change the line to just 'exec /usr/bin/enlightenment', else ssh-add just works on /etc/X11/Xsession and Xsession runs the windows manager, thus making 'ssh-add' neigh on useless...)
