I had a lot of problems with the RedHat 6.2 distribution of gnome.
Those problems kept me working with AfterStep. After having enough
with the known Java2/X11 window manager problems I decided to get
gnome/sawfish working on my machine.
I've now switched to the helix code gnome distribution for some time
(installed on top of RH6.2) and I've been running gnome/sawfish with
almost zero window manager crashes. Helix-code provides you with a
great automatic update feature that makes upgrading a snap.
Check out the helix code gnome distribution at
