[NBLUG/talk] Enlightenment on Redhat 9

[Mark Street]

Careful with that one....

The ~/.Xclients-default file would be a better bet.

vi ~/.Xclients-default

add the line

exec Enlightenment

save and exit.

If you really want to tweak on the X startup routine take a look at 
/etc/X11/xinit/Xclients.  Take a peek at xinitrc while you are there.  Note 
that /etc/sysconfig/desktop sets the default window manager.

Red Hat's switchdesk command will allow you to switchdesktop's on the fly

You could run 
switchdesk enlightenment
It would automatically set your ~/.Xclients-default file to 
enlightenment....... yeah I know, there is a ~/.Xclients file in your home as 
well... WARP - what???  I can have a different manager startup on different 
displays on the same host??? ENDWARP -

/usr/share/apps/switchdesk contains all the Xclients-* files for all the 
installed desktops.
