I stumbled across this a few weeks ago, but never installed and/or toyed
with it.  Didn't see the reason.  So I then moved over to installing
e17.

But I ~think~ you should be able to start 3dwm from xinit or startx.
Edit your ~/.xinitrc to include the 3dwm option.  Your ~/.xinitrc should
look like this.

exec /path/to/3dwm

Then instead of running Xtart at your prompt, type xinit, or startx.  It
~should~ then boot into 3dwm.  Once you're in it, take some screenshots
for us and share with the group.

Hope this gets ya started.

| I would like to test the 3dwm windows manager; I have downloaded from
| cooker the files:
| 3dwm
| lib3dwm
| libmeshio
| libmeshio-devel
| omniorb
| 
| installed all, but now I have not idea about how to start this windows
| manager. Xtart doesn't give me an entry for 3dwm or similar. I have
| taken a look at the 3dwm home page but not information about this.
| 
| Do I need more files?
| What steps must I do?
| 
| Thanks a lot in advance for your help
