[SuSE Linux] Installed Wmaker .50 now things are a mess
I just installed the latest version of Windowmaker .50 and as per the instructions, I de-installed the version that I installed with YaST on my SuSE 5.3 system. I did wmaker.inst as the last step. While the make, comile etc went fine, and I can start wmaker using the command: tartx /usr/local/bin/wmaker how can I get wmaker to appear in the fvwm "other Window managers" box? I prefer to run Gnome and choose wmaker as the manager but it does not appear as a selection. Thanks in advance!!

You can run gnome with any # of different windowmanagers. I choose to run it with E and esd. WindowMaker is not built on top of Gnome, in the sense that Gnome is not a depency requirement. The actual desktop environment associated with WindowMaker is GNUstep, for which I'm told it will be the native windowmanager, as much as I suspect the primary windowmanagers associated most with Gnome, will probably wind up being E. -M
