I don't have a linux box nearby, so I'm doing this from memory. If you have a .xinitrc or .xsession file in your home directory, you should have something like 'exec /usr/X11/bin/blackbox' on the last line. Otherwise, I think I recall there sould be a list of possible windowmanagers in /etc/X11 somewhere. Just find it and put blackbox in it. Hope this helps a little, and good luck finding the exact locations and files :-) Ben.
