Hi,
I am a little new to suse but so far like it alot.
I cannot seem to find the files that configure the window manager.
I want to change some of the drop down menus and also change the mailer to mutt instead of pine.
Can anyone tell me where these files are located.
Also when I install OSS, I again cannot find those files to run the setup. Please point me in the rith direction.

Hi- I use the default window manager (fvwm2) and most options can be found in the .fvwm2rc file that you create in your home directory. If you want to change the email option, you can search for a string like pine. I found it handy to change the default mailer that comes up with the mail notifier also by editing the string line for coolmail in the button bar. You can also add more menu options on the menu you get when left clicking on the desktop by adding additional programs, separating them with lines, etc. I also commented out the fvwmbutton bar in .fvwm2rc and use tkdesk instead. I found it easier to add icons and programs to tkdesk. Open an xterm and type "tkdesk" or "tkdesk &" and see if you like it. Hope this helps you find a few things in the .fvwm2rc file. -- --Michael Perry-- mperry@basin.com -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
