Didn't catch if this file also resides in /etc/X11/dm/Sessions or
somewhere in my homedir!
Just run slocate to see if there is a special place for *.desktop files.
There are lots of them scattered over serveral directories! Didn't see
any of them residing in /etc/X11/dm/Sessions.
Maybe should be /usr/share/xsessions right?
