IceWM is the default for Helix Gnome.  When I'm in Windowmaker 
and start a gnome-session in an xterm, it spits out a "window 
manager already running" message.  Then it waits a bit and 
Gnome starts up and everything works fine.  The thing that bugs 
me is that this whole process is really slow.

The distro is SuSE 6.4, 2.2.14 SMP kernel.  I'm *not* starting 
Gnome when I start X, as I don't use it all the time.  My .xinitrc just 
says "exec wmaker".  I figure one of the gnome config files is the 
problem-- I was just wandering if someone might be able to point 
me to the right one.

Cheers,
Dennis
