I just installed XF86 4.0.2 and I cant find the xinitrc file. I'm using Slack71 distro and I've done a:
"find / xinitrc" but still i cant find it. All I want to do is have Blackbox start when i do a "startx". Anyone know what to do?
Thanks

its .xinitrc and if you cant find it just make one and put it in ~/.xinitrc then that will start when you type startx.

cp /var/X11R6/lib/xinit/xinitrc ~/

edit xinitrc
add "exec blackbox" at the bottom
save it as ~/.xinitrc

I think that X-4.0.2 uses .xsession instead of .xinitrc
