i wanted to run SAWMILL as window manager (im not using ximian so i couldnt
install sawfish) on gdm.
i did:
update-alternatives --config x-window-manager
and then i chose SAWMILL as the window manager from the list.
BUT:
i thought i should edit a file, particularly .xinitrc or .xsession...
i have ~/.xsession file and it has only one line: exec gnome-session.
anyway i just want to know whether i did the right thing to have a window
manager or i should have done it in a different way/
thanks.
What I think you've done is change the sim-link x-window-mnager so that
it now points to sawmill, if you change the exec gnome-session line to
exec x-window-manager it should load sawmill
Don't worry that you couldn't install sawfish, there the same program, it has
just been renamed due to a nameing conflict (with what I don't know)
