Interesting thing is my file {below} indicates gnome as a choice but I cant see it at login. I wonder if thats because I made sure to not install the broken nautilus 2 which comes with 8.2 Pro? CWSIV

I installed the base graphics install and it defaults to FWVM. Does anyone know how I can change that to Blackbox or Openbox as the default instead? the base graphics install doesn't allow you to choose like with the full graphics install with KDE.

Edit /etc/sysconfig/windowmanager and set DEFAULT_WM to your window manager of choice
