I'd expect this to be the job ow whatever session manager you are
afflicted with. For example, if you're "on" Gnome, I'd look into
.gnomerc; I don't know whether Freedesktop has come up with a common
theme for that.
For desktopless users (like me, Fvwm), the "classic" X session mechanism
applies, rooted in /etc/X11/Xsession.
