  I just started using the xdm daemon by setting th xdm=YES in
the /etc/rc.conf file.  Then made the .xsession file in my home
directory.  No problem so far.

The problem was that some of my programs won't start from that
.xsession file in my home directory when I log in using the xdm window.
Specifically, "hanterm" won't start up when it is placed in the .xsession
file, but it starts OK if I put it in the "xinitrc" file and start the
session by doing the "startx" command.

Does any one know why hanterm would start OK from the "xinitrc" file but
not from the ".xsession" file in my home directory??

  Thanks,

			Guy
