Just out of curiosity I thought I'd take a look at some of the other WindowManagers that come with LM8.1. I did not originally install them when I installed LM though.
So using the Software Manager in the Mandrake Control Center I installed Blackbox. Now however, I'm completely unsudre how to change my default WindowManager when I start an X session. I type startx, and it goes into Gnome. I tried typing startx blackbox but I got the twm manager running installed. When I try typing startblackbox, blackbox or exec blackbox I get the following messages: "failed to open catalog, using default messages BaseDisplay:BaseDisplay: connection to X server failed" I generally have no problems going into Gnome whenever I need to by typing startx. In Gnome, using the Gnome Control Center under WindowManagers all I see listed in Sawfish (current) and twm, I don't see blackbox listed at all. So what do I need to do to get Blackbox running as my defauly WindowManager so I can check it out, then switch back to Gnome when I want to??? Thanx!!!
