Questions on finding Gnome and Xsession, etc.

[Stephen Liu <satimis@icare.com.hk>]

Hi folks,

Gnome seems case-sensitive???

I performed following tests

On Konsole window

# updatedb

1)
# which Gnome
# which gnome
No printout

# whereis gnome
gnome: /etc/gnome /usr/share/gnome /usr/share/man/man1/gnome.1.gz
# whereis Gnome
Gnome:


# locate gnome | grep gnome
.....
...
# locate -i gnome | grep -i gnome
....
,,,
# locate Gnome | grep Gnome
/etc/gdm/Sessions/Gnome
........
.....
then I found it


2)
# which xsession
# which Xsession
No printout

# whereis xsession
xsession:
# whereis Xsession
Xsession: /usr/share/man/man5/Xsession.5.gz

# locate -i xsession | grep -i xsession
/etc/gdm/Sessions/Xsession
/etc/X11/xdm/Xsession
/etc/X11/Xsession
....
Then I found them.


Is there a shortcut to search /etc/gdm/Sessions/Gnome other than performing 
all such steps mentioned above


Which pair executables starting GNOME???
a) /etc/gdm/Sessions/Gnome
   /etc/gdm/Sessions/Xsession

b) /etc/gdm/Sessions/Gnome
   /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession

c) /etc/gdm/Sessions/Gnome
   /etc/X11/Xsession

TIA
