Re: starting a default window manager

[Josep Llauradó Selvas <darlock@teleline.es>]

In a previous release of Debian (Slink) there was a text file
(/etc/X11/window-managers) where you could write it your preferences about
which window manager run when there wasn't any .xinit or .xsession into
the home dir. 

In potato you can modify the /etc/X11/Xsession or the
/usr/X11R6/bin/startx scripts to do the same, take a look into the both
files and choose your custom system...
