problem starting gnome-session from gdm



Hello,

I just installed the last gnome packages on a PC running RedHat 5.2

I can't start gnome-session from gdm.
As it is writen in the FAQ, here is the .Xclients file :

#!/bin/bash
WINDOW_MANAGER=/usr/bin/enlightenment
export WINDOW_MANAGER
/usr/bin/panel &
exec /usr/bin/gnome-session

Unfortunately gnome-session doesn't start but only fvwm.

But if I start X11 via startx with gnome-session in .xinitrc, everything is 
working fine.

gdm ignores the .Xclients file ( and also the .xsession file).

Where is the mistake ?

Thanks for any help.
