do the same way as i explain for xfce4, so just change into fluxbox.
2. Execute the following commands:
su
cd /etc/X11/dm/Sessions
cp gnome.desktop fluxbox.desktop
3. Edit /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/fluxbox.desktop
gedit /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/fluxbox.desktop
On line ~58, replace
Exec=gnome-session
with
Exec=/usr/local/bin/fluxbox
Do a case sensitive replace (Ctrl R in gedit)
Replace GNOME with fluxbox
that should do. rh9 to fedora are just the same, they use gdm.

i have not managed to get fluxbox added to my session list in fedora yet,
perhaps its because i upgraded from rh9 to fedora
any thoughts ?
cheers

Session menu for GDM login screen.
I'm running Fedora Core 1. I'm going to show you how to add the desktop in Session Menu for GDM Login Screen.
Example for xfce4 desktop:
1. Check that the following files exist:
/etc/X11/gdm/Sessions/XFce4
2. Execute the following commands:
su
cd /etc/X11/dm/Sessions
cp gnome.desktop XFce4.desktop
3. Edit /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/XFce4.desktop
gedit /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/XFce4.desktop
On line ~58, replace
Exec=gnome-session
with
Exec=/usr/bin/startxfce4
Do a case sensitive replace (Ctrl R in gedit)
Replace GNOME with XFce4
Logout, and XFce4 will appear in the Session GDM menu.
it can be done on any desktop such as Fluxbox
