[xmonad] Gnome3 and xmonad

[Don Stewart]

That's scary looking.

I wonder if xmonad is in your $PATH?

My xmonad.desktop:

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=xmonad
Exec=xmonad
NoDisplay=true
X-GNOME-WMName=xmonad
X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=WindowManager
X-GNOME-Provides=windowmanager
X-GNOME-Autostart-Notify=false

And I export `xmonad` at startup:

PATH=/home/dons/.xmonad:/home/dons/bin:$PATH
export PATH
gnome-session --session=xmonad

Double check xmonad is in your path?
