here it is in all its gory detail, this is teh basic .xinitrc
that i have been using for teh past 15 years or so .. with
small changes as my needs changed over the seasons.

##### .xinitrc 

#xhost +a few lan-machines

 xrdb -load $HOME/.Xresources

#xsetroot -solid gray &
#xsetroot -solid darkred &
 xsetroot -solid black &

 xbiff -geometry -430+5 &

#oclock -geometry 75x75-0-0 &
 xclock -geometry 80x80+0+0 -update 1 &

 xload -geometry -80-0 &

#xterm -geometry +0+60 -ls &
#xterm -geometry +0-100 &
 uxterm -geometry +20+20 &

 nautilus &

#xconsole -geometry -0+0 -fn 5x7 &
#xconsole -geometry -0+0 -fn 6x8 &
#xconsole -geometry -0+0 -fn 6x9 &
 xconsole -geometry -0+0 -fn 6x10 &

#exec gnome-session &
