Well that only gives e.g. gnome in my case.

Can't you simply offer a dummy x-session-manager that has highest
priority and just starts the traditional xterm?

Is there any reasons for the desktop-environments that they need to be
started by startx by default as well? Most people will run them by
gdm/kdm/etc.

Yeah... if X doesn't work I couldn't access that anymore that easily ;)


Cheers,
