 Posted: Thu Aug 26, 2004 11:15 am Post subject: A question about gdm[solved] |
 |
|
My current .xinitrc file looks like this:
| Code: | LANG='zh_CN' scim -f socket -ns socket -d
LANG='zh_CN' scim -f x11 -s socket -c socket -d
exec gnome-session
|
Originally, I use the command to start my X(gnome). Now I want to switch to gdm. It's easy to start gnome using gdm. But how to start LANG=.... these command using gdm? thanks

ln -s .xinitrc .xsession and then simply choose "Custom session" in GDM.

Thank you very much. I solve it. 
by the way: you can create a .xsession file in your home dir and add execution right for currenty(It's very important). then choose the custom session. Everything works |
