So that's not a good solution. This is intended to be default behavior only if you install a special xmonad-gnome-session package, though i'm planning on doing one for kde too. Presumably, if the user wants this behavior, then the package is needed, but realistically, if /etc/xdg/autostart implies that it is forced on the user in KDE, then you're right, it's a bad solution, because i'm really looking to have this remain optional, via GDM or KDM (/usr/share/xsessions/*) -Yaakov -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
