Thanks I don't normally use dtwm, but I do have a hacked together method to do so on the rare occasions when I need to w/ VNC. Try something like this in your xstartup file: ====================================================================== LANG=C export LANG # note - Xsession seems to be screwing up the keyboard mapping #/usr/dt/bin/Xsession & # more simply, just start the dtwm: #dtwm & # but that misses a lot of the COSE/CDE startup... # this seems to work correctly all around: #dtsession & # and this allows me to force dtwm instead of fvwm which I normally force # as well as getting the .dtprofile settings for using xlockmore for the # dt screen saver: echo 'dtsession*wmStartupCommand: /usr/dt/bin/dtwm' | xrdb -merge /bin/ksh -c ". ~/.dtprofile ; dtsession -norestore" & ====================================================================== I left all of the comments in there so you could could see some of the various gyrations I went through to figure out what to do to get it to work more or less properly with my, uh, unusual setup. The simple 'dtsession &' line might be sufficient for your setup. I know others have posted how they do it here as well, you could probably search through the archives to find several other solutions. I do this under Solaris 5.7, BTW.
