    (Set DISPLAY environment variable and run this command.)
    GNOME Environment /usr/bin/gnome-session
    K Desktop Denvironment (KDE) /usr/bin/startkde
    XDM /usr/lib/X11/xdm/Xsession (Unix)
    /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession (Linux)

  • To start Unix/Linux desktop environment from Xstart
    1.   Type DISPLAY=$DISPLAY; followed by one of the command above in the Execution Command box.
    2.   Open the proper Xmanager profile in Xconfig and clear 'Termincate at Reset' option.
