Default Running (and exiting) another windowmanager (HPUX 11.0)

Hello,

i am running windowmaker 0.80.1 on HP-UX 11.00. The sart of this is
managed bye an entry in the .Xdefaults:
*wmStartupCommand: /usr/local/bin/wmaker
This works good.

Exiting is done by a dtaction:
/usr/dt/bin/dtaction ExitSession
This works, but it takes a long time (>=1 minute; no user-program is running).
Has anybody seen this before? My users are allway "nervous" in the evening

regards
Roman

Try adding:
Dtsession*waitWmTimeout: 1
to your .Xdefaults.

Thanks for your answer. This works for starting (very fast now). But exit takes
still ~60 seconds.

Any hint?

Don't let dtsession be the XDMCP session manager. Since you're not using
dtwm, I would guess that you're not using other features of CDE either, so
why bother with them (ie, dtsession, ttsession, etc)?

Instead of using wmStartupCommand, add an "exec /my/window/mgr". Then your
session will terminate when the window manager exits.

Make sense?
