This required that I edit gdm.conf and change the SessionDesktopDir such that: SessionDesktopDir=/usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/Sessions/ If I were to do this in custom.conf (which is basically empty), what section would I do it in? Or is there some other (better) way to accomplish this. Since I do not use Gnome in any way (just gdm)... I need a way (my .xsession file) to get things up and on their feet. Thanks. > > Joe >
