The ''gnome-session'' program starts up the GNOME desktop |
|
|
25 |
environment. This command is typically executed by your |
|
|
26 |
login manager (either gdm, xdm, or from your X startup |
|
|
27 |
scripts). It will load either your last session, or it will |
|
|
28 |
provide a default session for the user as defined by the |
|
|
29 |
system administrator (or the default GNOME installation on |
|
|
30 |
your system). |
|
|
31 |
|
|
|
32 |
|
|
|
33 |
You can optionally specify a specific session name to |
|
|
34 |
restore. |

''gnome-session'' is an X11R6 session manager. It can |
|
|
38 |
manage GNOME applications as well as any X11R6 SM |
|
|
39 |
compliant. |
|
|
40 |
|
|
|
41 |
|
|
|
42 |
''gnome-session'' uses the contents of the |
|
|
43 |
~/.gnome/session file for starting up as specified by the |
|
|
44 |
'' |
|
|
45 |
|
|
|
46 |
|
|
|
47 |
If the session file does not exist, ''gnome-session'' |
|
|
48 |
will use the contents of the |
|
|
49 |
''/etc/gnome/default.session'' file. |
|
|
50 |
!!OPTIONS |
|
|
51 |
|
|
|
52 |
|
|
|
53 |
The following options are supported: |
|
|
54 |
|
|
|
55 |

|
|
56 |
''--choose-session=ARG'' |
|
|
57 |
|
|
|
58 |
|
|
|
59 |
User can specify a session to load, as opposed to the |
|
|
60 |
session specified in the ~/.gnome/session-options file. If |
|
|
61 |
that entry does not exist in the ~/.gnome/session file (or |
|
|
62 |
if that file doesn't exist), it will use the default session |
|
|
63 |
and all saves to that session will be to the new session |
|
|
64 |
name. |
|
|
65 |
|
|
|

|

|
|

''gnome-session'' accepts all of the standard environment |
|
|
100 |
variables used by gnome programs, other than the |
|
|
101 |
SESSION_MANAGER environment variable. [[ xref to a manpage |
|
|
102 |
where this is documented. ] gnome-session also sets several |
|
|
103 |
environment variables for the use of its child |
|
|
104 |
processes. |
|
|
105 |
|
|
|

|
107 |
__SESSION_MANAGER__ |
|
|
108 |
|
|
|
109 |
|
|
|
110 |
This variable is used by session-manager aware clients to |
|
|
111 |
contact gnome-session. |
|
|
112 |
|
|
|
113 |
|
|
|
114 |
__DISPLAY__ |
|
|

|
|
|
116 |
|
|
|
117 |
This variable is set to the X display being used by |
|
|
118 |
''gnome-session''. Note that if the --display option is |
|
|
119 |
used this might be different from the setting of the |
|
|
120 |
environment variable when gnome-session is |
|
|
121 |
invoked. |
