NAME

       sdm-session - starts a sdm session

SYNOPSIS

       sdm-session [<options>]

DESCRIPTION

       opens a session for use with sdm(8).

       if  present,  /etc/sdm/Xsession will be called with <options> passed on
       the commandline. alternately /etc/X11/Xsession, and failing  that,  the
       first argument is searched for in the PATH.

FILES

       /etc/sdm/Xsession /etc/X11/Xsession

BUGS

       sdm-session  executes  the  Xsession scripts rather than sourcing them,
       and attempts to kill the PPID, usually ssh(1), in order to end sessions
       for  programs  which  were  started outside the scope of the the window
       manager.
