Re: Getting Gnome to start with xdm and/or startx

[Tim Lewis <tlewis timelinevista com>]

Ned,
Very simple.  In my .xinitrc (located in my root directory), I have:

gnome-session

this will work with startx, but for xdm to work, you need to copy
.xinitrc to your .Xclients or .xsession files.  I have copied .xinitrc
to both.

Good luck,
Tim
