Hello,
here at work I've been finally given a PC with Linux Red Hat 7.2
and blackbox-0.61.1-2. Distro and/or blackbox version cannot be
changed because of company policies too shameful to discuss them
here. Also, I have no root password.
The problem: the PC has been configured with initlevel 5, and GNOME.
How can I use blackbox as my wm? If I put /usr/bin/blackbox in .xsession
and the WINDOW_MANAGER environment variable, GNOME croaks because I
am not using a GNOME compliant WM, and I'm left with an unusable desktop
Keep in mind that I don't need GNOME at all, I just got it with the PC,
and, again, requests to change the "default" install, i.e. to mess with
gdm or such, are going to be ignored, for the more or less right reason
that other people may use this PC, and they would get lost without icons
and such. Any clues?
TIA,
Marco Fioretti
