But it's running? Do you have StumpWM's mode-line enabled? Use the
"mode-line" command to toggle it on and off. It needs to be off for
external panels to work.

Very bizarre, if you have no ~/.stumpwmrc.... Does ~/.xsession-errors
contain anything useful?


Is there a reason you want to start StumpWM through Gnome? Could you
just use an ~/.xsession that looks like:

gnome-panel &
exec stumpwm

? Then "startx" to start X, though GDM should have an option for
launching from ~/.xsession as well.
