Hi All,
I just set up a computer with Scientific Linux 6.1, using
the default "Workstation". Then I installed Xfce.
Question, how do I change my gdm default from gnome to Xfce?
/etc/gdm/custom.conf
[daemon]
DefaultSession=xfce.desktop
Does not work. What am I doing wrong?
Many thanks,

To set it at the system level you will need to use gconftool-2 on SL6.x.
The exact arguments elude me right now. For just your user, gdm should
be setting a .dmrc in your home area with a set of stanzas to allow the
system to remember your preference.

Hi Pat,
I am drawing a blank on Google. Do you have any idea what
that .dmrc stanza is?

This should point you in the right direction for .dmrc
http://projects.gnome.org/gdm/docs/2.24/configuration.html#userconfig
Its a bit old but should get the job done.
