Hello,
I´ve some problems withe the .xinitrc script because it won´t work the way I want it to do.
I emerged Icewm and Idesk without any problems so I want to start them at startup but X only loads one of them.

If my .xinitrc looks like this:

exec icewm-session
idesk

then X only loads icewm but not idesk but if it looks this way:

idesk
exec icewm-session

it only loads idesk but not icewm.
In both cases I can start Icewm or idesk manualy but thats not the way I want it.
Thx for your help.

exec icewm-session&
idesk

- or -

idesk&
exec icewm-session

(Probably best to do the second way, that way when you quit icewm... Xfree will die too, rather than when you quit idesk)

Thank you ShALLaX now it works the right way.
