.xsession not being read?
Thanks to everyone for the answers on installing KDE or GNOME on a
2.0 box. I appreciate it.
Installing GNOME brought something to mind I hadn't thought about,
although I noticed it months ago: my .xsession file is never read.
I had to edit the global /etc/X11/Xsession file to force X to load my
window manager.
This is irritating. Why would .xsession not be read? Any ideas? I
have three Unix books and four Linux books here, and not one
describes the X startup process even well enough for me to figure out
which program actually reads Xsession and .xsession files.
