   Hi!

   Some comments:

      I think the names  are .xinitrc and .xsession.  But perhaps these has
   changed in X11R6.  The best way  to save the desktop is  to use the fvwm
   window manager (compiled with the m4 preprocessor  option). Then you are
   able  to save your desktop  with the SaveDesktop Module which comes with
   fvwm (save the information in ~/.fvwmdesk). It's really a nice toolkit.

   Regards Lars
