Hi \t,

sorry for the late reply. I didn't find to test it further on the weekend.

The solution:
startx /usr/bin/qtile   -- execute /usr/bin/qtile directly
startx qtile            -- load .xinitrc with qtile as argument

When I used 'startx qtile' it started working!

Thanks for your help :)

Hi \t,

in the global /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc qtile is not called, so that
should not be the case.

The export only works if you call the command before that too:

eval $(/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start
--components=gpg,pkcs11,secrets,ssh)

It will start a process and create the named variables. By exporting
they are made available outside of the current scope.

In a shell it would work like following:

$> FOO="fubar"
$> echo $FOO
fubar
$> bash
  $> echo $FOO

  $> exit
$> export FOO
  $> echo $FOO
fubar
  $> exit

not sure though how it works in this context.

Sorry, of course, I think I replied too quickly. Are you sure your
xinitrc is getting run? Can you put touch /tmp/foo in it and see that
it does get run?
