Using garnome as non-root



 I'm having terrible trouble using garnome as a non-root user.

I'm using Redhat 7.3 and garnome is installed to default /root/garnome/. In /etc/X11/gdm/Sessions/ I've created a new file "Garnome" that I use to start garnome us as root. In there I have :

#!/bin/bash

PATH=/root/garnome/bin:$PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/root/garnome/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH GDK_USE_XFT=1

export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH GDK_USE_XFT
export PATH

exec /root/garnome/bin/gnome-session


I've even tried:

#!/bin/bash

PATH=$HOME/garnome/bin:$PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/garnome/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH GDK_USE_XFT=1

export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH GDK_USE_XFT
export PATH

exec $HOME/garnome/bin/gnome-session

In GDM, I choose session -> Garnome, and for both of these configurations it for root, but not for any other user. If I try to log on as another user to Garnome the screen flashes a couple of times and then drops me back to the login screen (gdm?).

Has anyone got this to work with RedHat 7.3, or does someone have some ideas on how to get it working.

Cheers

Damien
