Hi

When I login into X from gdm I get XFCE, but when i login via startx at
the commandline prompt I get gnome, how do I change startx to do the
same as gdm ? or atleast to set it to xfce

Create a shell script .xsession in your home directory. Put whatever you like in it, gnome-session or xfce-session. It will be executed whenever you do 'startx'. When logging in from gdm select 'User Session' or 'XClient script' (whichever is present) and choose to make it the default option if you like.
