See reader questions & answers on this topic! - Help others by sharing your knowledge When xdm runs your .xsession it doesn't source your .cshrc or .login files. You can set the path explicitly as you normally could for any SH script; or you can place all environment-setting statements in a separate file and source it from both the .xsession file and your shell configuration file; or, if you set your PATH in your .cshrc file, the normal place, you can make your .xsession have PATH set simply by making it a csh script, i.e. by starting your .xsession file off with "#!/bin/csh". If this doesn't work, also try starting off with: #!/bin/sh # Reset path: PATH=`csh -c 'echo $PATH'` ; export PATH User Contributions:Top Document: comp.windows.x Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) 2/7 Previous Document: 40) How to I have xdm put a picture behind the log-in window?
