That's scary looking.

I wonder if xmonad is in your $PATH?

My xmonad.desktop:

[Desktop Entry] Type=Application Encoding=UTF-8 Name=xmonad Exec=xmonad NoDisplay=true X-GNOME-WMName=xmonad X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=WindowManager X-GNOME-Provides=windowmanager X-GNOME-Autostart-Notify=false

And I export `xmonad` at startup:

PATH=/home/dons/.xmonad:/home/dons/bin:$PATH export PATH gnome-session --session=xmonad

Double check xmonad is in your path?

Yes I'm sure it's in the path. When it's not in the path the error is different (I tried removing xmonad from my PATH). In my case, xmonad is started in the few seconds after gdm login (I can use all my xmonad key bindings during that time), after that period gnome give a popup window says login failed, then I can do nothing except logout.

Thanks for this, I'll try it out later today.

Sure :) - if you want to have a closer look at the fedora package it is here:

It worked beautifully: http://therning.org/magnus/archives/93

Thanks for the info!

I'm using arch but failed to start xmonad session after following the steps, here's what I got in .xsession-error:
