Sorry... I must have hit the wrong key :( > No extra configuring is needed to run WindowMaker. Just to choose > 'GNUStep WindowMaker' session in your display manager (kdm, gdm) and > login. How can I get the option 'GNUStep WindowMaker' to appear in my kdm login session list? All I have are: 'default', 'custom', 'fluxbox', and 'failsafe'. But I can't seem to find anywhere to change this, and selecting 'custom' or 'default' just crashes and returns to the kdm login screen. > It seem that in your case wmaker is crashing or so.

Here's a listing of my ~/.xsession-errors after a login attempt. It's very short. ==== Failed to read: session.styleOverlay Setting default value BScreen::BScreen: managing screen 0 using visual 0x21, depth 24 Failed to read: session.styleOverlay Setting default value Failed to read: session.styleOverlay Setting default value Idesk starting in :0.0 [idesk] Background's file not found.
