Hi. After 2.5 months of not updating a sarge-box, I took the plunge and made it an up-to-date sarge+sid box.
Most things seem to work, except there's no window manager. Gnome fires up, and I can run programs, but only in single-task mode. How can I tell Gnome to use Metacity? I see instructions on the web to use a .xinitrc file, but I never needed that in the Gnome1.4/Sawfish days. I tried dpkg-reconfigure, but no luck: # dpkg-reconfigure x-session-manager Package `x-session-manager' is not installed and no info is available. Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files, and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents. /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: x-session-manager is not installed TIA, Ron -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ron Johnson, Jr. Home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Jefferson, LA USA | | | | "I'm not a vegetarian because I love animals, I'm a vegetarian | | because I hate vegetables!" | | unknown | +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
