Hi,

I guess the title says it all. I simply can't find the script that handles the whole sequence of starting up X. Mine seems pretty messed up so I want I have a look at it. All scripts I read so far are fine but my installation starts the wrong desktop (the correct one is specified in prefdm and .Xclients, .Xclients-default but it choses to start always XFCE).

Is there any log file that can tell me what is done ?

Regards,
Marcel

It's usually the file /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.

It delegates the work to other skripts. You have to read /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc if you want to see, what it does.

On fedora systems the script /etc/X11/xinit/Xclients is called if there's no $HOME/.Xclients. This script looks in /etc/sysconfig/desktop, what you preferred desktop is.
