Description Sergey Vlasov 2002-11-14 23:04:33 MSK
I suggest replacing the line

SourceIfNotEmpty \"$HOME\"/.xprofile

in /etc/X11/Xsession with

SourceIfNotEmpty \"$HOME\"/.xprofile \"$@\"

so that the Xsession arguments are also available to the user ~/.xprofile script. This feature is useful when some programs must be started only in the specific WM/desktop environment. E.g., bbkeys is almost required for working with BlackBox, but WindowMaker gets very upset if bbkeys is run with it.
