[SOLVED]SliM and .xinitrc

Hey guys me again

Ive just installed Slim. and changed my rc.conf putting slim in the correct area, slim boots up fine. and then when i login it says that it failed to load session. so i checked my ~/.xinitrc

exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch openbox-session

and it all seems proper. so im not sure what im missing

Re: [SOLVED]SliM and .xinitrc

It looks good to me too. Hmmm.
Do you need to use consolekit and dbus?
Have you tried it using just startx or xinit?
Is .xinitrc executable?
That's all I've got. Hope it helps.

Problem solved. i was missing xorg-xinit from the repos. pacman installation fixed the issue and XAUTH
