Try this: exec gnome-session and put it in this file: /home/youruser/.xinitrc where "youruser" is your username. Edwin -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Ed Stewart Sent: Thursday, November 27, 2003 2:05 PM To: freebsd list Subject: X startup Hi, I have just finished installing FreeBSD 4.7, everything is working fine even X. When I use startx as root Gnome and enlightment loads,but when I load on with my username and startx it loads Xterm. My question is how do I get Gnome to load instead of xterm? I am new to freebsd and am not sure where to look. I tried to find an answer on google,but no luck.
