Xsession.options(5) File Formats Manual Xsession.options(5)
NAME
Xsession.options, Xsession.options.d - configuration options for Xses-
sion(5)
DESCRIPTION
/etc/X11/Xsession.options and /etc/X11/Xsession.options.d/*.conf con-
tain options that determine some of the behavior of the Xsession(5)
Bourne shell (sh(1)) script. See the Xsession(5) manpage for further
information.
These configuration files may contain comments, which begin with a hash
mark ('#') and end at the next newline, just like comments in shell
scripts. The rest of the file consists of options which are expressed
as words separated by hyphens, with only one option per line. Options
are enabled by simply placing them in the file; they are disabled by
prefixing the option name with 'no-'.
Options are read from /etc/X11/Xsession.options, followed by
/etc/X11/Xsession.options.d/*.conf in sorted order; later occurrences
of an option (with or without the 'no-' prefix) take precedence over
earlier occurrences.
Available options are:
allow-failsafe
If the 'failsafe' argument is passed to the Xsession script, an
emergency X session is invoked, consisting of only an x-termi-
nal-emulator(1) in the upper-left hand corner of the screen. No
window manager is started. If an x-terminal-emulator program is
not available, the session exits immediately.
allow-user-resources
If users have a file called .Xresources in their home directo-
ries, these resources will be merged with the default X re-
sources when they log in.
allow-user-xsession
If users have an executable file called .xsession in their home
directories, it can be used as the startup program for the X
session (see Xsession(5)). If the file is present but not exe-
cutable, it may still be used, but is assumed to be a Bourne
shell script, and executed with sh(1).
use-session-dbus
If the dbus package is installed, the session bus will be acti-
vated at X session launch.
use-ssh-agent
If the ssh-agent(1) program is available and no agent process
appears to be running already, the X session will be invoked by
exec'ing ssh-agent with the startup command, instead of the
startup command directly.
All of the above options are enabled by default. Additional options
may be supported by the local administrator. Xsession(5) describes how
this is accomplished.
