For what it's worth I only got the one. If everyone else got multiple |
| 21 |
messages then perhaps gmail is filtering them. |

With regards to the OP getting twm running, that should be the default WM if |
| 24 |
Xsession is used. Does your /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc contain something like |
| 25 |
this at the bottom? |
| 26 |
================================ |
| 27 |
# start some nice programs |
| 28 |
twm & |
| 29 |
xclock -geometry 50x50-1+1 & |
| 30 |
xterm -geometry 80x50+494+51 & |
| 31 |
xterm -geometry 80x20+494-0 & |
| 32 |
exec xterm -geometry 80x66+0+0 -name login |
| 33 |
================================ |
| 34 |

What is the default shell that the user has in this OS image? That may affect |
| 36 |
how xinit is run and what it can do thereafter. Also, if you hosed |
| 37 |
you .bashrc and a shell was defined in there, then that might explain why you |
| 38 |
could see xterms launching before, but not any more. |
| 39 |
|

Anyway, just some loose thoughts. Perhaps you can reload the image afresh and |
| 41 |
see what happens then. |

HTH. |
