Wait, I am confused... you want to use another window manager than the one you are currently using, yes? I do not think you do this with gdm, but with GNOME. If you mean GNOME, then do the following: 1) Install window manager via apt-get 2) Find path of window manager (probably /usr/bin/<window_manager>) 3) Open gconf-editor 4) Go to Desktop -> Gnome -> Applications -> window_manager 5) Edit the values 6) Restart X (log out and in again, or run /etc/init.d gdm restart as root).
