I'm running RH8.0 and seek a way of switching window managers without changing the existing default. I could write ~/.xinitrc and with a line represting the name of my intended wm, but prefer switching from command prompt.
I installed a window manager and verified that it's in the path of both root and user. My older directions suggested that I pass the name of the wm executable to the xstart command. I tried this, but xstart does not recognize the option, and I don't see any option that accepts a window manager as its value. So I tried running xinit the same way, but that was not the way to go, either. I'm running RH8.0 and seek a way of switching window managers without changing the existing default.
