I wolud like to be able to load a second virtual terminal using different gnome environments that i have installed without having to log-out and log-in using
startx gnome-session -- :1 vt8
using .xinitrc what would be the proper way to do this to load for example cairo dock.
this is what i have for my .xinitrc file
#!/bin/sh
#
# ~/.xinitrc
#
# Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ]; then
for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/*; do
[ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
done
unset f
fi
exec gnome-session
exec startkde
exec startxfce4
exec wmaker
exec icewm
exec blackbox
exec fluxbox
exec openbox-session
# ...or the Window Manager of your choice
exec xterm
What are the arguements to use when using a session that uses gnome like cairo-dock to add to my .xinitrc
