I've installed SL6.1 "Minimal Desktop" in order to use IceWM on an IONITX

I'm trying to determine the best method to have GDM use IceWM by default.
Have you installed
xorg-x11-xinit-session
? I needed that to use twm.
I believe I need to modify /etc/gdm/custom.conf and specify a few parameters
to force GDM to use icewm-session instead of gnome-session. I've already
tried adding "PREFERRED=icewm-session" in /etc/sysconfig/desktop to no
avail. Any additional information would be greatly appreciated.
