problem updating rh9 to fedora: config GDM to start another wm direfent to kde
 

Hi people,

i have a very strange problem. someone at a #fedora irc chaneln told me, there was no problem updating rh9 to fedora c1.

i did it, and almost everything workes. exept the gdm. i used to have icewm and blackbox installed, but now i only can start them if i put a .xsession file on my home.

i don't whant to keep this configuration, because i'm turning between kde and icewm and sometimes i need the one and sometimes the otherone.


what i did: i edit the file /etc/X11/xdm/Session and put following lines:
icewm)
exec -l $SHELL -c "/usr/share/apps/switchdesk/Xclients.icewm"
;;

i made the file /usr/share/apps/switchdesk/Xclients.icewm as follows

#!/bin/sh
exec xscreensaver &
exec /usr/bin/icewm-session

and ofcourse, i made this other file : /etc/X11/gdm/Session/icewm

#!/bin/sh
exec /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession icewm

the problem: gdm Beeps at startup and i don't get icewm in the munue... all this worked with rh9

i even made a file called: /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/icewm.desktop with:

Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Icewm
Type=Application
Icon=
Exec=/usr/bin/icewm-session



if someone could help me resolving this little problem, i would be very glad.
