I have .xsession in my home directory starting a windowsmanager (tried `exec startkde` and `startkde` without quotes ofcourse) .xsession is executable. I can run startx successfully. Running FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE with XFree86 Version 3.3.5 What could be the problem? Also, what is a good source for finding solutions to these small problems, only few are mentioned at the FreeBSD FAQ webpage. Thanks, _Alain ______________________ Alain G.
