I know, but the problem starts after installing and running vmware.
i dont like to unse another WM, fvwm2 uses very less memory, and when you
ned to run linux and two times nt on one pc you can't spare enough mamory.
Is there any other WM available wich also uses less memory?
thanx juergen

I think he's associated the abbreviation for the window manager.
Juergen, FVWM2 is a window manager that controls your display in a
particular
style.
VMware is entirely different; it's software that lets you install Windows
and
run it =as=a=window=in=Linux=. In other words, Linux as the base OS and
Windows in a Linux window so you can run those pesky Windows apps in Linux!
Works good, but a bit slow.
Be advised, FVWM & -2 are rather old and very few people run them, so you
will
have trouble with support. Recommend KDE. (Gnome still too buggy)
