See Guy-Michel Lessard  June 11th, 2008 response for one answer.

Another issue could be that diffent distro's use different files.  I
seem to remember from my redhat days that they used "$HOME/.Xsession". 
Not sure what distro you are using, but AFAIK the $HOME/.xsession should
work for all debian based distros.
