I tried to get Window Maker to run to figure out whether the problem is window 
manager related. I did
        
        add-apt-repository ppa:profzoom/wmaker
        apt-get update
        apt-get install wmaker

logged out and tried to login after selecting Window Maker in the login panel. 
This does not work. I am not logged in but routed back to the login screen! :-(

Any experiences with Window Maker and its installation on an Ubuntu 16.04 
system?

Thanks a lot,

 Andreas
