        .xinitrc if you use 'startx' from a virtual console, .xsession 
if you use Xdm (X==[gkwx]).

        Not sure you need the ampersand, and 'exec whatever' may be
better, saves you a process.

  Prabhu> dpkg --print-avail apmd wmapm genpower

        Or better still, if you constantly look up package
descriptions, like I do :):

$  grep -3 davail .bashrc

# Debian specific : fetch blurb on packages
davail()
{       
        dpkg --print-avail $*
} 

$ source .bashrc; davail apmd ... 


        Cheers,
