For some odd reason these steps have worked for me and my machine setup.
make sure your in your home directory, /home/you
type pico .xinitrc
type in the line of wmaker
hit control x to save and exit.
Then locate wmaker
the last line should be /usr/X11R6/bin/wmaker.inst
execute that line and it should run through a setup for window maker.
when it's done it will ask you to create a file so type in .xinitrc
That should complete the process.
Just type in startx and windowmaker should start.
