- Is there any way to avoid starting the session manager at all? I
- recently installed the Motif package on our cluster, and on 16Mb
- stations the combination of xconsole and xsession is a real memory
- problem. By using vtwm instead of mwm, xclock instead of dxclock, and
- xcalc instead of dxcalc, and by killing the xconsole at startup the
- system is workable, but I would really like to get rid of the session
- manager too (It eats about 1600kB).
-
- Anyone?
