So I have installed Etoile... question tho... I am using the etoile-system session starter... and it does not start any windowmanager... how do I set the windowmanager for it?
after fiddling around with limited success, the following works somewhat for me:
On current etoile svn, there is a etoile.desktop file (in Services/Private/System), when you copy this to /usr/share/xsessions, a session manager like gdm or kdm and possibly others, too, will offer you "etoile" as a session type. I now have to go "init 5" instead of "startx", but when I do so and select etoile, it gives me pretty much everything I'd expect.
Also, in etoiles' svn main directory, there is now a setup.sh which should do this and a couple of other things for you. In fact, I have used that one.
Whether this works or not probably also depends on your distribution, so your mileage may vary...
