Is your $HOME/.xsession executable?
And does the xterm have window decoration, like Resize, Close, etc?

Someone else posted a message about this problem a while ago. You might want to 
browse through Etoile's discuss list.

No you do not, nib loading is handled by GNUstep. I have never run 
LookAndBehaviour.app, so I can only guess. Could be the nib (the .gorm file) is

I've seen it mentioned that Azalea has a dock, but I never tried to find out 
for sure, as I was using GWorkspace's dock which works reasonably fine.
