Sorry I didn't jump back into this thread sooner - I was in a
little town called Fukuyama (population 180,000) all day.

Yes, /usr/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc IS being used on _my_ system. I
changed the fvwm to fvwm2 and it did go back to reading
~HOME/.fvwm2rc95 After I have a chance to unwind (aka drink a
couple of beers) I'll try the .xsession file to see what happens.

One strange thing, though. I had to call the window manager via
the full path name - probably an indication that this wasn't
originally intended to be the *right* way;-) ie:

/usr/local/bin/fvwm95-2

Cheers,

Jim S.
