 If you're still using GDM, try select IcmMW session as default. It should
sit somewhere on the bottom (sorry, I can lead you by hand, I don't use
GDM;-). There's another way, you could just write yourself a .xinitrc, put
it in your home dir and pass there, what exacly would you like to run when
,,startx'' is invoked.
