Re: Disabling x-session-manager



OK, maybe I'm just stupid here, but I don't see how I can get
a window manager to start if a session manager is installed.
There's nothing about that in Xsession or Xsession.options.

If you're suggesting that I modify
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/50xfree86-common_determine-startup,
well, I disagree.  I did that with Xmodmap and then a few months
later had to waste 1/2 hour figuring out why X wouldn't start up.
Those files change too much for them to be considered "config files"
(unless you expect us to merge our changes with yours every four
months).

Ya know, I'm quite certain the answer does not lie in rgb.txt.  :)
