调整startx的默认设置

[手动搬家自网易博客 原发表日期：2008-03-23]         在学校，我为了追求效率，便在magiclinux 2.1上安装了轻量级的xfce4桌面，默认运行级别为3。但每次要进入桌面时，如果用startx就会进入KDE,用startxfce4进入 xfce4后又是英文界面，而且无法使用中文输入法。今天我突然发现，startx实际上是一个脚本，然后用vim打开后逐行阅读、跟踪，最后终于发现默 认的桌面设置在/etc/sysconfig/desktop和/etc/X11/xinit/Xclients这两个文件中。然后修改了这两个文件，终 于可以用startx正常进入xfce4了。 附：现在我的这两个文件： /etc/sysconfig/desktop： DESKTOP=XFCE4 DISPLAYMANAGER=XFCE4 # DESKTOP=KDE # DISPLAYMANAGER=KDE /etc/X11/xinit/Xclients：
