Just ensure that the rox.desktop and rox-session files ROX-Session
installs are placed correctly when the distribution is installed (you can
create them with ROX-Session to find out what they should look like).

Defaults can be placed in /etc/xdg/rox.sourceforge.net (or wherever your
XDG_CONFIG_DIRS points). Defaults can also go in ROX-Defaults, which is
used automatically by ROX-Session when using 0launch.
