I am joining late, but in case it helps:
I need all the help I can get :-)
I have nm-applet and trayer working fine. I launch trayer and nm-applet from .xinitrc,
Now here is something where I'm completely lost: How do I choose between .xinitrc, .xsession, startx, xinit, X, gdm, lightdm etc. etc? (And where in all this does/should .Xmodmap get read? I'm testing ideas by starting a second X server, and something somewhere is reading my .Xmodmap when I launch a session normally, but not manually.)
[...] I change display configuration options via xrandr [...]
Note to self: Check out Xrandr.
I need to use kdm or gdm as display manager
For technical reasons?
I could never get the wdm + ck-launch-session combination to work correctly
Do I understand correctly that ck-launch-session is something that I will only need if I use nm-applet? If I go with wicd, ck-launch session won't be necessary? Does anyone have any comments on nm-applet vs. wicd?
