how to write a .xinitrc
- using the global xinitrc
- be nice to the cluster: xset b off
window manager choices (X11_WINDOW_MANAGER)
- KDE (default)
- xfce
- fluxbox
- fvwm2
- wmaker
- sawfish
- mwm
- twm
To use a nondefault window manager
- put the following in your .login (before the line that starts X11) or in .xinitrc:
export X11_WINDOW_MANAGER=<choice>
Also need to set USE_DESKTOP_ENVIRON to x11 for it to be meaningful
