The easiest way I have found, is to create a file named .Xclients (case matters) in your home directory. Put in the commands you wish to execute when X starts, putting your window manager last, since when the script finishes, your session will end.
example:
xterm & wmaker
And, make sure you make the file excutable, using "chmod +x .Xclients" And, do not put an ampersand after the wmaker!
This should work, but again, I don't know what distribution you are using, always
works for me.

Hi, How do I get XDM to load a desktop manager other than TWM or the xterm session that it loads? Thanks, Anoop
