User specific environment variables?

[Hadmut Danisch <hadmut@danisch.de>]

Hi,

I have a question about /etc/X11/Xsession.d:

When a user logs in with a dm, e.g. gdm, 
and chooses KDE or Gnome, then the 
user's .xsession is not executed, even if 
allowed in /etc/X11/Xsession.options.

Since also the ~$HOME/.profile or 
$HOME/.login are never executed, the user 
has no chance to set individual environment 
variables. How is he supposed to do that?


Proposal:

Have another script in /etc/X11/Xsession.d, 
which checks whether /etc/X11/Xsession.options
allows user specific environment scripts, and
if so include $HOME/.profile (or anything like 
that).
