/etc/sysconfig/desktop has not existed for several previous versions of
Fedora before F10! If you need this file then create it - it only has two
lines usually! You can copy it from an earlier working system if you like.
It contains lines such as:
DESKTOP="GNOME"
DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE"
or similar.
Hi Mike,
Thank, but I do not understand why this Xclients file has not been
fixed in fedora 10 !!
I do think that it is a similar bug that mess up gnome-session !
kde works fine, but as soon that I switch the gnome, the X session
fails.
Regards.
