Hi. I've been using Gnome as my default desktop for about a year now, but setting it up is a lot more complicated than plain-jane X with the .xinitrc file, etc. For instance, if I want to start ssh-agent that seems to be done for me by Gnome already... but I can't figure which start-up script I should put ssh-add into to load up my private keys... Also, how can I add the root password into my keychain at start-up (once) so I can do machine administration without being prompted later for the root password? And if I wanted to startup xload, etc. those used to go into .xinitrc (as above), but Gnome does things differently. Is there a summary of what files to use for customization? Thanks, -Philip
