I'm running Fedora 32 and I'm choosing fvwm as my "session" in gdm.
Doing `ps -ef grep dbus | grep -i session` returns the following. Am I
missing something?

gdm         1478    1341  0 06:37 tty1     00:00:00
/usr/libexec/gdm-x-session dbus-run-session -- gnome-session
--autostart /usr/share/gdm/greeter/autostart
gdm         1489    1478  0 06:37 tty1     00:00:00 dbus-run-session
-- gnome-session --autostart /usr/share/gdm/greeter/autostart
gdm         1490    1489  0 06:37 tty1     00:00:00 dbus-daemon
--nofork --print-address 4 --session
dov        62906       1  0 09:46 pts/6    00:00:00 dbus-launch
--sh-syntax --exit-with-session
dov        62907       1  0 09:46 ?        00:00:00
/usr/bin/dbus-daemon --syslog --fork --print-pid 6 --print-address 8
--session

Thanks!
