Once upon a time I setup gdm to launch my .xsession file when I logged
in. This required that I edit gdm.conf and change the
SessionDesktopDir such that: SessionDesktopDir=/usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/Sessions/
If I were to do this in custom.conf (which is basically empty), what
section would I do it in?
Or is there some other (better) way to accomplish this. Since I do not
use Gnome in any way (just gdm)... I need a way (my .xsession file) to
get things up and on their feet.
Thanks.
