I have been trying to get it to directly give me a graphical login. The Xfce manual says this can be done using gdm. According to it, I need to copy the example file "xfce44.desktop" into /usr/X11R6/share/xsessions. The example file is supposed to be located in /usr/local/share/examples (since Xfce is installed in /usr/local.) But there is no such file. 1. Is there any other location this file could be? (`locate` cannot find it.) 2. Can I download it from somewhere? Googling did not give anything. 3. Will anyone be kind enough to send me a copy by email? It is strange why the file's not there. Xfce was installed using pkg_add (the port was giving some error in compilation which I could not solve) and is working nicely without any obvious problems. Thanks, Nishita. -- http://nishita.50webs.com/
