kdm, sawfish and .xsession

[brendan@brendanhalpin2.staff8.ul.ie (Brendan Halpin)]

I'm trying to get kdm working with sawfish, without using kde. I've
been reading the code in /etc/kde3/kdm/Xsession, /etc/X11/Xsession
and /etc/X11/Xsession.d/*, and my conclusion is that kdm is not
meant to read ~/.xsession when it is asked to run sawfish or
another window manager. (As an aside, I can't see how the code will
ever read ~/.xmodmap.)

If that's the way it's meant to be, fine, but how do I best get the
basic .xsession functionality, e.g. running programs, doing a
little xmodmap tweaking, defining a background? 

If the answer is .sawfishrc, any pointers to a good summary?

Regards,

Brendan Halpin
