Running startx doesn't run Xsession

Hi,

The following was cross-posted on debian-x

For some reason, the /etc/X11/xsession (4.3.0.dfsg.1-10)) stuff isn't
running. For example, the ssh agent isn't started.

To test this, I modified the file /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc as follows:

#!/bin/sh
# $Xorg: xinitrc.cpp,v 1.3 2000/08/17 19:54:30 cpqbld Exp $

# /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
#
# global xinitrc file, used by all X sessions started by xinit (startx)

# invoke global X session script
exit
. /etc/X11/Xsession

Despite the presence of the EXIT command, X still starts

This happens whether I start X using startx or xinit

How do I run Xsession?

Cheers,
jec
