Unless Apple has changed things since 10.2, quartz-wm is supposed to be installed with Apple's X11. It should be in /usr/X11R6/bin.

I believe that quartz-wm isn't fully KDE-compliant, but startkde insists on invoking it to use as the window manager if it's present. You can put the following in your ~/.xinitrc :

export KDEWM=/sw/bin/kwin

I'm a little skeptical this is all there is, because I have no executeable name "quartz-wm" (which quartz-wm returned nothing) so I figure that exec call will fail. Am I missing something?


Nope. I don't understand why it doesn't error out for the failed exec call, but it worked like you said, and things are right back where they should be, my (puzzled) thanks.

exec quartz-wm --only-proxy &
exec startkde

The first line forces startkde to use kwin, and the second invokes the Command-key bindings for quartz-wm, but doesn't actually start the window manager.

After a layoff for a while, I'm back to running fink+kde, but while I finally got the configuration for the Apple X11 where I wanted it for coexistence with KDE, I can't seem to get any but the first virtual desktop established. The config screens say I have added more (I usually want 8) but they don't show up in the pager (I see only one) and I can't switch to any mor with the keyboard mapping I use for that, control-plus.

Anyone know any trick I might use to get me those virtual desktops again? They used to work in Jaguar's (read fink's) X11 (I didn't use Apple's X11 back then).

Thanks
