I just started getting this error. It doesn't seem to make any
difference as X starts with the same window manager as always. I
didn't intentionally change anything but I did install some update
rpms including fvwn2-2_0_46-12_i386.rpm and fvmw2-icons-2_0_46-
12_i386.rpm. This was to update RH 5.2. Here is the error
message.
XFree86 Version 3.3.5 / X Window System

than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting
problems. (see http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)

WARNING: You selected WindowMaker as your window manager,
but your installation of WindowMaker does not appear to be
functional. Either /usr/X11R6/bin/wmaker was not found or
/usr/share/WindowMaker directory is missing.
RESUMING with Fvwm2 (95 look)
waiting for X server to shut down
The directory is indeed missing. I'm curious as to how I selected
WindowMaker as my window manager or where
/usr/share/WindowMaker or wmaker went since I didn't have the
error message before.
