Closing/killing xclock and xmessage after XDM login
I am having the hardest time figuring out how to get xmessage and xclock to die automatically after login via XDM. I have tried adding a killall line for each program in GiveConsole, a script to kill both at once in GiveConsole (can source later... too tired now, sorry) and created a script separate from everything else which does a killall for xmessage and xclock... so far, none of these methods have killed these two programs after login. I am running Cinnamon as my standard desktop and these two need to shut down before I finish logging in. It's an annoyance to close them manually at every login before I use my computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Re: Closing/killing xclock and xmessage after XDM login
I may be misunderstanding your question, but If you want to immediately kill xmessage and xclock, why are you starting them in the first place?

They are both being used with XDM, but I don't need them once I log in.
