  <title>De standaardsessie voor een gebruiker instellen</title>

  <p>The default session is retrieved from a program called
  <app>AccountsService</app>. <app>AccountsService</app> stores this information
  in the <file>/var/lib/AccountsService/users/</file> directory.</p>

<note style="note">
  <p>In GNOME 2, the <file>.dmrc</file> file in the user home directory was used
  to create default sessions. This <file>.dmrc</file> file is no longer used.</p>
</note>

  <steps>

    <item>
      <p>
        Make sure that you have the <sys>gnome-session-xsession</sys>
        package installed on your system.
      </p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>
         Navigate to the <file>/usr/share/xsessions</file> directory
         where you can find <file>.desktop</file> files for each of the
         available sessions. Consult the contents of the
         <file>.desktop</file> files to determine the session you want to
         use.
      </p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>
        To specify a default session for a user, update the user’s
        <sys>account service</sys> in the
        <file>/var/lib/AccountsService/users/<var>username</var></file>
        file:
      </p>
<code>[User]
Language=
XSession=gnome-classic</code>
       <p>
         In this sample,
         <link href="help:gnome-help/gnome-classic">GNOME Classic</link> has
         been set as the default session, using the
         <file>/usr/share/xsessions/gnome-classic.desktop</file> file.
       </p>
     </item>
  </steps>

  <p>After specifying a default session for the user, that session will be
  used the next time the user logs in, unless the user selects a different
  session from the login screen.</p>
