I can't figure out how to use sawfish in gnome2. With the below settings, if I remove metacity, I get a gnome session without window manager instead of sawfish.
I have set the alternative: ~$ update-alternatives --display x-window-manager x-window-manager - status is manual. link currently points to /usr/bin/sawfish /usr/X11R6/bin/twm - priority 40 slave x-window-manager.1.gz: /usr/X11R6/man/man1/twm.1x.gz /usr/bin/sawfish - priority 70 slave x-window-manager.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/sawfish.1.gz /usr/bin/metacity - priority 40 Current `best' version is /usr/bin/sawfish. I have set sawfish in my gconf: ~$ cat .gconf/desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/%gconf.xml <?xml version="1.0"?> <gconf><entry name="default" mtime="1037058583" muser="christophe" type="string"><stringvalue>/usr/bin/sawfish</stringvalue></entry><entry name="current" mtime="1037058923" muser="christophe" type="string"><stringvalue>/usr/bin/sawfish</stringvalue></entry></gconf> I have even set WINDOW_MANAGER in ~/.gnomerc ~$ cat .gnomerc export WINDOW_MANAGER=/usr/bin/sawfish export [EMAIL PROTECTED] export GDK_USE_XFT=1 exec gnome-session And it's still defined to sawfish once logged: ~$ echo $WINDOW_MANAGER /usr/bin/sawfish What I have missed?
