OK, this is probably a dumb question.

I am running FC2 with a combination of desktops - mostly gnome2 and XFCE.

How can I set up the environment for each user? Which file in the user's
home directory is read on a text login? Which file is read when X starts
up?

Right now, I am setting up the environment in ~/.Xclients and
~/.Xclients-default - but I'd like to have a more general solution if
there is one.

What is the preferred way to do this?

Thanks,
