Seems to me the best way would be to make the user's shell /usr/bin/X11/X
or whatever the path is. /etc/X11/Xserver should tell it what server to
use and /etc/X11/Xsession should tell it to read ~guest/.xsession (or tell
it not to). The file locations are based on debian, but i think most
distros are the same or similar. This way is faster than putting it in
~guest/.profile.

Peace,

I have set up a new user as guest and want to go directly into the X
Environment as soon as they log in.  Hence eliminating the need to type
startx.  I want this only for the guest account.  Any ideas on how to
achieve this.

Thanks
