Here is an excerpt from my .xinitrc file, which is complicated by the
fact that some people may be starting fvwm from .Xdefaults. I have done
it both ways.


      # Start up the session manager and/or window manager. First,
      # check if user is starting window manager separate from .Xdefaults.
      if test `egrep fvwm $HOME/.Xdefaults | egrep '^[^!]' | wc -l` = 0
      then
         /usr/local/bin/fvwm -f "FvwmM4 .fvwmrc" > $HOME/fvwm.log 2> $HOME/fvwm.log &
      fi
      if test -f /usr/bin/dxsession
      then
         /usr/bin/dxsession -geometry +0+0 > $HOME/dxsession.log 2> $HOME/dxsession.log &
      else
         echo "what system is this?"
      fi
