If you use xdm, $HOME/.xsession per-user or /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession 
for everyone (hmm, might be somewhere else in 4.1, use locate Xsession).
See xdm(1).

If you use startx, it's xinitrc/.xinitrc, see startx(1).

See INITIALIZATION in fvwm(1) for the locations it searches.
If you tried these then tell more about what you did.
