I was not a happy camper. The Nautilus file manager on  1.4 has enough

Under Gnome 1.4, I use Konqueror as my file manager - less trouble, more
usability...

  
Plus. You may have the same problem setting up a WM other than
Metacity.
    

Try using the GConf-editor to edit the "registry" for Gnome2 - it
doesn't always work, but I've run through the config files left and
right under Gnome2, and the only way it seems to work (getting another
WM to work) is to kill the Metashitty and fire up Sawfish, then quit
saving the session...(I have tried doing a mv metacity metacity.old yet,
but that's on the books, too...therefore, Gnome2 won't be able to find
it and run it!)

  
BTW. I'm feeling better about this installation by the hour. Once I
installed the NVidia drivers.
Things have started looking up.
    

Yes, having the proper graphics drivers are definitely keen...makes for
a much better experience - especially if you're like me - can't live in
a world less than 1600x1200...!!

On another note, you can install the Xtart rpm - which gives you the
ability to choose different wm/desktops as you desire...

I can do this now with the login used by GDM
