Interesting. I'll give this a spin.

Does anyone know how to use a window manager other than Metacity with GNOME.
MDK 9.0
GNOME 2.0

      

The secret with that is to KILL MetaCity and startup another WM, then
exit and save the session. I had to hack the hell out of mine in order
for it to recognize either IceWM or Sawfish...then it was still "iffy"
    

what i did was 

# mv /usr/bin/metacity /usr/bin/metacity-
ln -s /usr/bin/X11/sawfish  /usr/bin/metacity
