What do you mean by "normal"?  With a wm?

That could work.  However, when you start something 
from inittab, there is no PATH set.  You have 
correctly used the full pathnames above, but startx 
(and the executables that follow) also will not have
a PATH set.

Yes.

I don't know.  Please indicate where there is a ftp 
server access problem, and I will try out the new
links.
