What do I need to do to make it read either my .xsession or .xlogin file ? I looked at the way the machine is set up under apollo released X11R3 and there seem to be a directory under /usr/lib/X11 called xdm and a bunch of start up files there...However I can't use those directly as they references to mterm and other xutilities not part of the standard distribution tape.. All I want is for xdm to read a login user's startup file (called either xsession or xlogin ).. Any help would be much appreciated.. -- Kumar Venkatramani Comdisco Systems Inc.
