Mmm, maybe this is perhaps due to the solution i was speaking below. Only sawfish and metacity being gnome2 compliant solutions and where going to be considered for running gnome2, i don't think this was supposed to stop you from using another WM, just that metacity and sawfish get higher priority. I will let other respond to you then. > My apologies, I did check this month's archive, but, if it weren't so early, > I should've checked last month and earlier too. :-) But apparently this is a new problem.
